Abstract: | The authors show that data envelopment analysis (DEA) can be viewed as maximising the average efficiency of the decision-making units (DMUs) in an organisation. Building upon this the authors present DEA based models for (a) allocating fixed costs to DMUs and (b) allocating input resources to DMUs. |
