Critical differences between the Ability Roundtable and other industry benchmarking activities include:

​

• Focus on benchmarking for excellence at a service level

• Fast turn-around from data submission to report delivery on our PowerBI platform

• Five-stage data quality process to give confidence that differences in the data are real

• Powerful analytics to allow members to identify drivers of difference in performance

• Annual national, service-specific meetings to discuss benchmarking results, problem-solve on common issues and share best practice examples. These meetings also provide access to innovations outside the sector and direct engagement with policy makers.

• Promotion of interstate collaboration

• Strong service-specific communities of practice to ensure fast uptake of innovations and emerging best practice

• Support for new members to align their data systems with the national datasets and to ensure they understand data requirements

• Comprehensive data dictionaries

• Ongoing, active engagement with members to improve datasets

• Strategic engagement with NDIA to ensure datasets are NDIS-ready and future-proofed

• Regular publication of white papers to support the sector, the NDIA and other government bodies
