Benchmark Development
Challenge
In late 2023, a tenured multi-stage venture capital firm faced an urgent challenge to upgrade it’s ability to access and utilize benchmarks. The firm’s technology team, faced with a daunting multi-year roadmap, engaged Termina to capture all historical financial/transactional data into the firm’s own Private Benchmark.
Solution
Termina’s operators worked hand in hand with the technology team to map out and ingest the historical data present at the firm. The volume of data was significant crossing hundreds of companies and over 10B rows of data across financials and transaction logs.
Despite the volume of data, the effort required from the firm’s executive sponsor, technical lead, and business users was de-minimis The firm’s team was able to provide data without any preparation with Termina handling all data cleanup and transformations.
As the firm’s Private Benchmark came online, the deal partners recognized several underperforming and over-performing companies within their own portfolio. These new benchmarks were selectively shared with company boards, leading to several material personnel changes across the portfolio.
Outcome
This firm was able to transition from legacy benchmarks to fully computed Termina benchmarks driven by their own private data in a fraction of the time and budget it would have taken to develop their own solution internally, and at a higher level of sophistication.
The firm reported a 100% adoption rate of these new benchmarks thanks to the ease with which the partnership could access fully functional benchmarks.
