The Columbus Partnership asked Community Research Partners to compare central Ohio with selected similar and "best in class" metro areas across the country on a broad framework of indicators, with a focus on economic competitiveness. The 2007 benchmarking report compares the Columbus metro area with 15 other communities on 54 indicators that describe the characteristics of the population, economy, and quality of life.

On April 2, 2008 Benchmarking Central Ohio 2008 was released at a forum at the Columbus Metropolitan Club. The report assesses how the 8-county Columbus metropolitan area is doing, in comparison to 15 other metro areas, using a panel of 60 diverse indicators. The indicators focus on four broad areas—population vitality, economic strength, personal prosperity, and community well-being—each of which describes a facet of the community that contributes to economic competitiveness. The research was commissioned by The Columbus Partnership, a CEO organization of 30 top business and community leaders in central Ohio whose mission is to improve the economy of central Ohio and be a catalyst for growth in the region.
The 2008 report represents the second year of the project.
