ISO/IEC 29155-2:20 13为“信息技术（IT）项目绩效基准框架”的流程提供了一般要求，规定: 基准框架内单个活动的流程要求（例如，进行基准、维护存储库、提交数据）， 成功执行活动和为其配备组件所必需的任务，这两者都在ISO/IEC 29155-1中定义。 ISO/IEC 29155-2:20 13旨在供IT项目绩效基准测试的任何利益相关者（例如，基准测试用户、基准测试提供商、基准测试服务提供商和IT项目团队）使用。 以下是如何使用ISO/IEC 29155-2:20 13的示例: 由系统和软件供应商实施基准测试过程以估计和/或评价IT项目的性能， 由系统和软件收购方（或第三方代理）评估供应商IT项目的绩效， 由基准提供商实施收集和分析IT项目数据并提供基准的过程， 由基准测试服务提供商实现各种服务（例如，提供用于基准测试的工具，或为基准测试用户进行基准测试的实例）。 ISO/IEC 29155-2:20 13没有规定如何利用基准测试结果，也没有规定基准测试过程产生的文档的名称、格式或明确内容。

ISO/IEC 29155-2:2013 provides general requirements for processes of "the information technology (IT) project performance benchmarking framework" by prescribing:

• the requirements for the processes for individual activities within the benchmarking framework (e.g. conduct benchmarking, maintain repository, submit data),
• the tasks necessary to successfully execute activities and equip them with components, both of which are defined in ISO/IEC 29155-1.
• ISO/IEC 29155-2:2013 is intended for use by any stakeholder(s) of IT project performance benchmarking (e.g. benchmarking user, benchmark provider, benchmarking service provider, and IT project team).

The following are examples of how ISO/IEC 29155-2:2013 can be used:

• by a systems and software supplier to implement a benchmarking process to estimate and/or evaluate performance of an IT project,
• by a systems and software acquirer (or a third-party agent) for evaluating the performance of the supplier's IT project,
• by a benchmark provider to implement processes to collect and analyse IT project data and provide benchmarks,
• by a benchmarking service provider to implement various services (e.g. providing instruments for benchmarking, or conducting an instance of benchmarking for a benchmarking user).

ISO/IEC 29155-2:2013 does not prescribe how to utilize benchmarking results, nor does it prescribe the name, format, or explicit content of the documentation that results from the benchmarking processes.
