TLDR
In this article, the authors use DEA to model DMUs that produce in two stages, with output from the first stage becoming input to the second stage, and apply the model to Major League Baseball, demonstrating its advantages over a standard DEA model.Abstract:
We show how to use DEA to model DMUs that produce in two stages, with output from the first stage becoming input to the second stage. Our model allows for any orientation or scale assumption. We apply the model to Major League Baseball, demonstrating its advantages over a standard DEA model. Our model detects inefficiencies that standard DEA models miss, and it can allow for resource consumption that the standard DEA model counts towards inefficiency. Additionally, our model distinguishes inefficiency in the first stage from that in the second stage, allowing managers to target inefficient stages of the production process.read more

Capacity and DEA Efficiency of Listed Chinese IT Firms Overseas
Hong Ge,Ming-di Li,Yu Gai +2 more
TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors evaluated and analyzed the operational efficiency and market efficiency of 28 Chinese IT firms listed on NASDAQ from 2008 to 2011 using the advanced DEA method and showed that the inefficiency mainly results from the market financing stage.

Two-stage efficiency measurement and technological heterogeneity: evidence from the biotechnological industry in taiwan
TL;DR: An efficiency assessment is conducted by taking into account a five-year time lag between R&D investments and actually obtaining a patent in order to better reflect the actual business operating process and thus more accurately gauge the efficiency of business operations in biotechnological companies.
Selection of guided surgery dental implant systems using network data envelopment analysis
TL;DR: Two-stage data envelopment analysis is used to measure the overall efficiency of individual dental implant systems and the relative efficiency of each phase of the selection process and may also inform guidelines for system producers to improve dental implant performance.

Productivity and Intermediate Products: A Frontier Approach
Rolf Färe,Shawna Grosskopf +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors introduce a frontier model for productivity measurement that explicitly recognizes that some inputs are produced and consumed within the production technology, where intermediate inputs may also be final output.

An intermediate input model of dairy production using complex survey data
Rolf Färe,Gerald Whittaker +1 more
TL;DR: It is found that the decomposition of production into subproduction processes reduces the dimensions of problem specification, with the effect that a larger number of variables may be usefully included in the model.
