When I have certain parameters and sub parameters on a social issue and scoring has been done using different techniques. These scores need to be normalized for further analysis. Moreover they need to have a certain benchmark score so their relative position can be assessed. During my survey unequal questions were asked on each parameter. The queries I have are:
There are many techniques to benchmark for various types of studies. Here is an article to benchmark supply chains using Analytic Hierarchy Process approach

Best regards.
Thank you Sanjay Kumar sir. I'll go through the above mentions publication.
What software you use depends on availability, and how comfortable you are with said software.
Minitab17 is what I would recommend for a powerful, yet simple, tool for statistical analysis. I used it recently through my institution's license, and I found it a very effective piece of software. If you haven't used it before, I strongly recommend using the free thirty day trial. This is the program that I recommend above any others, especially if you are even slightly familiar with spreadsheet programs.
SAS is an alternative statistics software, which I have used to a lesser degree. It is a little more difficult to use than Minitab but it is equally, if not more, effective for large scale analysis.
The third program that I know of is R, and R Studio. I do not recommend this program unless you are comfortable with programming and a limited knowledge of linear algebra. Unlike the other two pieces of software that I have listed, R is free for anybody to use.
Thank you Quentin. I'll go through the software you suggested
