•Units in DEA are known as DMUs- Decision Making Units
•Generally a DMU is regarded as the entity responsible
for converting inputs into outputs.
•Data are assumed to be positive
•Measurement is unit invariant

21. • Optimal weights for an efficient DMU need not be unique
• Optimal weights for inefficient DMUs are unique except
when the line of the DMU is parallel to one of the
boundaries.
• If an activity (x,y)εP (Production Possibility set), then the
activity (tx.ty) belongs to P for any positive scalar t.

25. COMPUTATIONAL PROCEDURE OF
CCR MODEL
Phase-I: We solve the dual first to obtain
Ө*. This Ө* is called “Farrell Efficiency” and
optimal objective value of LP
Phase-II: Considering this Ө* as given, we
solve the LPP of output shortfalls and
Input excesses. (max slack solution)

26. Refine Definition of CCR-Efficiency
If an optimal solution (θ*,λ*,s-*,s+*) of two
LPs satisfies θ*=1 and s-*=0 and s+*=0 then
DMUk is CCR-Efficient.

27. EXTENSION OF TWO-PHASE
Two-Phase process aims to obtain the maximum sum of slacks
(input excesses+output shortfalls). For the projection of an
inefficient DMU on efficient frontier,Itxmay result a mix which is far
DMU x1 x1 1 y
from the observed mix A 1 2 1 1
B 1 1 2 1
C 2 10 5 1
The Phase-III process is recently proposed (Tone K., “An
Extension of Two Phase Process”,ORS 1
D 2 5 10 Con, 1999 ) and
implemented in few software 2 10 groups similar DMUs in a
E which 10 1
subset within peer set.

28. INPUT ORIENTED AND OUTPUT ORIENTED MODELS
We discuss so far input-oriented models whose objective
is to minimize inputs while producing atleast given level of
Outputs.
There is another type of model that attempts to maximize
outputs while using no more than the given (observed)
inputs. This is known as output-oriented model.

29. Comparing Input-oriented CCR Model
with Output-oriented CCR model
If µ, η are variable vector of output oriented CCR problem
then at the optimum the following are the equivalences with
Optimal solution of Input-oriented CCR problem λ* and θ*:
* 1
η= * =
λ
µ θ *
*
θ *
Slacks of the output-oriented model are related to the slacks
of input-oriented models

30. It suggests that an input-oriented CCR model will be efficient
for any DMU iff it is also efficient when the output –oriented
CCR model is used to evaluate its performance.

31. BCC MODEL
CCR model has been developed on the assumption of constant
return to scale. A variation of DEA model is BCC (Banker,
Charnes and Cooper) which is based on
variable return to scale.
• Increasing return to scale
• Decreasing return to scale
• Constant return to scale
The BCC model has its production frontiers spanned by the
Convex Hull of the existing DMUs
