Performance Plus

Performance Plus is an online performance benchmarking tool. It provides detailed financial and employment data on more than 600 business sectors across Canada, including more than 30 performance measurement ratios to help small businesses determine how they measure up against their competitors.

Summary

Performance Plus is designed for small businesses and for people preparing business plans. It enables them to benchmark their businesses against their peers and plan their operations objectively.

Performance Plus uses the Small Business Profiles (SBP) data from Statistics Canada. These profiles were created from a sample of the Canada Revenue Agency tax returns for both incorporated and unincorporated businesses operating in Canada. The SBPs are a source of detailed financial statistics relating to the small business sector in Canada. They are intended as a performance benchmarking tool to be used by small business managers and stakeholders in the planning of start-up and established businesses. Each profile provides the user with statistics that indicate the general performance and financial structure of all businesses within a given industry grouping at the national, regional, provincial or territorial level.
