A Procedure for Ranking Efficient Units in Data Envelopment Analysis Per Andersen Niels Christian Petersen Department of Economics, Odense University, Odense, Denmark Department of Management, Odense University, Odense, Denmark Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA)evaluates the relative efficiency of decision-makingunits (DMUs) but does not allow for a ranking of the efficient units themselves. A modified version of DEA based upon comparison of efficient DMUs relative to a reference technology spanned by all other units is developed. The procedure provides a framework for ranking efficient units and facilitates comparison with rankings based on parametric methods. DEA, Linear Programming; EfFciency; Sensitivity Analysis 1.

The measures are relative, since the true multipliers to some closed convex cones which need production set is unknown. not be the nonnegative orthants.
