Ventana Research performed this research for a fee to determine trends in and
attitudes toward the deployment and utilization of compensation management
systems. This document is based on our research, and in particular on analysis of
information provided by organizations that we deemed qualified to participate in this
benchmark research.
This research was designed to investigate the compensation management practices
and needs of individuals and organizations and the potential benefits from improving
their existing processes, information and systems. This research is not intended for
use outside of this context and does not imply that organizations are guaranteed
success by relying on these results to improve planning. Moreover, gaining the most
benefit from improving compensation management requires an assessment of an
organization’s unique needs to identify gaps and priorities for improvement.
We certify that Ventana Research wrote and edited this report independently, that
the analysis contained herein is a faithful representation of our evaluation based on
our experience with and knowledge of compensation management, and that the
analysis and conclusions are entirely our own.
