The benchmarking partnership of cluster enterprises is an important and interesting field of scientific research in the management sciences. The purpose of the paper is to identify the key factors limiting the establishment of this form of partnership and to establish their impact. This paper argues that proper identification of the main limiting factors is an essential management process to help with benchmarking partnerships, and I aim to examine which limiting factors (internal or external) have a greater negative impact on the establishment of benchmarking partnerships? The work utilizes indirect research through the analysis of literature sources and deductive reasoning, and direct research through the use of questionnaires conducted with selected Polish clusters enterprises.
