Abstract

The aim of this paper is to present a methodology for using a data envelope analysis method at research organizations with intangible quantitative and qualitative inputs and outputs. This paper covers the way of applying changes and limitations used in the data envelope analysis model. It also shows the manner of transferring limitations and factors into the mathematical equations and terms. With respect to the attributes of research organizations and the existing different conditions in data analysis method, the use of the above method will not be possible easily to measure the efficiency of research centers. One of the most important existing problems in this respect is to quantify and qualify inputs and outputs at research organizations. Consequently, it is so difficult task to convert quality cases to quantity ones and to create uniform inputs and outputs. This activity in particular has been used at one of the research organizations in ministry of energy practically. Then, the efficiency of different engineering departments has been measured in three consecutive periods with respect to the similarity of activities. It is concluded that the trend of efficiency changes at each department is defined by linear programming models and is quantified by the use of LINGO software. The obtained result has been reported to the top manager as management information for making a decision.
