DescResearch Projects and Benchmarking: APQC conducts research on what drives high performance inside specific processes that are core to organizational viability and found in both public and private sectors. This includes providing the methodologies, know-how, data, infrastructure, oversight and management. As part of its research program, APQC maintains both qualitative and quantitative repositories, question libraries, and taxonomies that are accessed via apqc.org by hundreds of thousands of individuals each year. In order to provide valid, reliable and trusted quantitative data at no additional cost to our members and the public at large, APQC maintains the Open Standard Benchmarking repository. The repository includes a library of industry process frameworks, maturity models and over 2,000 corresponding performance measures that cover activities and tasks performed in organizations throughout the world. The benchmarking repository houses data provided from over 30,000 organizations making up over 3,100,000 data points from which the benchmarks are derived and then provided back out to the public. Participants in this body of research complete detailed data collection instruments; data is then validated, analysis is performed and detailed reports are created reflecting the participating entities' gaps in performance against the data sets and their unique areas of improvement identified in order to reach optimal performance levels. Reporting includes performance gaps, trends, drivers behind high performance, and best practice insights. Reports are provided through Open Standards Benchmarking at no cost to the user and are valued at over $5,000 per report.In order to provide qualitative best practice information, APQC conducts hundreds of research projects annually that are designed to collect best practices and codify performance characteristics of high performing organizations in such a way that they can be shared broadly. The APQC Knowledge Base includes more than 6,300 content items, including best practice reports, case studies, white papers, specific process trends and corresponding best practices, metrics, tools and templates.Additional dissemination of APQCs content, including Process Classification Frameworks, Maturity Models and Benchmarks, is done through partnerships with management consulting services and trade and industry associations. Both management consulting firms and associations have a much broader reach, touching more individuals through their work than APQC is capable of achieving. Through these partnerships APQC is able to provide data to millions of individuals who ultimately apply the data for the purpose of improving in areas such as generating higher productivity, improved quality of products and services and deriving cost savings inside organizations at no additional cost to the end user. Further dissemination is conducted via the publishing of reports, publications, white papers, speaking engagements and web-based events designed to share knowledge broadly.Desc

Form 990, Part III, Line 4d: Other Program Services DescriptionOTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 4: Information Services: APQC provides research assistance for individuals at no additional cost via APQCs Ask Us program that searches APQC databases for the appropriate information and then provides it back to the requestor.

Form 990, Part VI, Line 1a: Explanation of Delegated Broad Authority to CommitteeThe Executive committee is comprised of five (of the 19) board members, and has responsibility for approving Board-level decisions that can not be made between annual full-board meetings. The Exec Committee is apprised of, and approves, the activities of the Audit, Investment, and Compensation committee.
Form 990, Part VI, Line 11b: Form 990 Review ProcessForm 990 is reviewed by the Chairperson, CEO and CFO. A copy of Form 990 is distributed electronically to all board members prior to filing with the IRS.
Form 990, Part VI, Line 12c: Explanation of Monitoring and Enforcement of ConflictsAn acknowledgement is sent annually to all board members, officers and key personnel asking them to affirm that they have 1) received the Conflict of Interest Policy, 2) read and understood the policy, 3) agree to comply with the policy, and 4) disclose any potential conflicts. Any reported conflicts are discussed with the Executive Committee of the board. Anyone who fails to return an acknowledgement may be removed from the board or their office.
Form 990, Part VI, Line 15a: Compensation Review & Approval Process - CEO, Top ManagementThe Compensation Committee of the board of directors reviews all compensation of officers and management using third party verifiable data. APQCs HR director subscribes to various local and national compensation data sources. Using these sources, HR performs an analysis of the external data and provides a compensation benchmark report to the committee for each management-level employee using the three standards of like job, like company and like role. Salary bands are created for each employee using actual compensation and a plus/minus 25 percent factor to account for tenure, experience, other duties and any other factors that could impact individual compensation. Five-year averages of individual compensation data are provided to the committee to be able to recognize trends in compensation. Compensation can never exceed the established cap. In 2018, APQC hired two independent professional services firms to perform a compensation study for APQC. This was done for the purpose of supplementing the internal work performed by the HR Director each year. Going forward, APQC will have an independent firm perform a compensation study once every three years to improve the corporate goverance of setting compensation at APQC.These compensation compatibles are then reviewed by Compensation Committee members in detail. The Committee provides HR with any additional informational requests or questions, then meets to discuss how the data compares to APQC compensation. The Committee approves all compensation including any merit-based increases or changes for each individual. Meeting minutes are kept for all meetings and are approved by all committee members prior to preservation.
