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

Influences of Talent Cultivation and Utilization on the National Human Resource Development System Performance: An International Study Using a Two-Stage Data Envelopment Analysis Model
TL;DR: In this article , the authors investigated the internal development process of the NHRD system and the performance at the system and sub-system levels, and found that countries that excel at nurturing talents do not necessarily have the ability to effectively use talents to create value.

On-field Performance Evaluation in Soccer Based on Network Data Envelopment Analysis
TL;DR: The offensive, defensive, and athletic efficiency of soccer teams during a league season is estimated based on a two-stage network Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) model based on aggregate-over-games statistics from the 2013-14 Greek premier soccer league.

Two-Phase Network Data Envelopment Analysis: An Example of Bank Performance Assessment
TL;DR: A two-phase procedure with free links to assess system performance, a proposed slack-based measurement (SBM) model to partition the links into two sets and a modified SBM model to determine the slack of each input, as-input link, output and as-output link are introduced.

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.
