Efficiency Evaluation Information System Based on Data Envelopment Analysis

As data envelopment analysis (DEA) has been developed both in theory and application, the calculation of models become more and more important. Although many DEA software tools have been built for the calculation of the DEA models, there are some deficiencies in embedding them into enterprise management information system (MIS). As an extension of this work, an idea was generated in this paper, which could both calculate the DEA and further support the decision making for decision making units (DMUs), i.e., the organizations, in the information environment. This is an attempt to bridge between DEA and MIS. And we could demonstrate this approach for building efficiency evaluation information system. Furthermore, an efficiency evaluation information system of company A, which was built by ourselves, was shown to illustrate our purpose.
