English term or phrase: benchmarked unit rates
In order to measure the successful delivery of these projects we focus on how efficiently it is being delivered as measured by benchmarked unit rates.

Finally, it is fundamental that costs should be prepared not only with an understanding of both engineering benchmark costs but also applying an understanding of system structure. To address this, at Sense we have developed a cost model that can provide a detailed component-by component breakdown derived if necessary from little more than Nett Data Hall Area and agreed resilience levels. The principle of the model is to follow the logical path of each system to derive unit quantities and then apply appropriate benchmarked unit rates. Table 3 demonstrates a sequence showing how some system component quantities and costs are derived.

The estimating model has been developed with a series of high level elemental costs for items such as route length, extent of route in tunnel, number of stations etc. To these quantities, a series of “all-in” benchmarked unit rates, derived from historical and published cost data, are applied to arrive at an overall scheme cost. The unit rate data has also been supplemented by in-house historical data, client supplied data and resource led “bottom up” estimates.

Yo también creo lo mismo, de hecho he puesto "valores de referencia", que no recoge todo el sentido del original, pero me parecía el compromiso más adecuado para el contexto. De todos modos, gracias a los dos por vuestras aportaciones. :-)

tarifas unitarias referenciales / basadas en referencias


Explanation:
las benchmark rates y los benchmark costs son los precios y las tarifas de referencias dadas en muchos sitios y bases de datos. Estas se utilizan para evaluar ofertas, para hacer estimados de costos cuando no se cuenta con cotizaciones directas de proveedores conocidos o cuando aún no se ha terminado el diseño y se usa el valor de referencia.
