benchmarking element/method
I think you can use this type of terminology in your text:

Hope it helps.

Note from asker:
| Thanks for your suggestion. Do you think that "benchmarking" would work in both places where the word appears? I'm not sure about the second occurrence. |

Comment: "Thanks Luis. In the end I used benchmark in the first instance and comparison in the second instance."
