Two-step benchmarking: Setting more realistically achievable targets in DEA
N. Ramón Escolano, J. L. Ruiz Gómez, I. Sirvent Quílez
The models that set the closest targets have made an important contribution to DEA as tool for the best-practice benchmarking of decision making units (DMUs). These models may help defining plans for improvement that require less effort from the DMUs. However, in practice we often find cases of poor performance, for which closest targets are still unattainable. For those DMUs, we propose a two-step benchmarking procedure within the spirit of context-dependent DEA and that of the models that minimize the distance to the DEA efficient frontier. This procedure allows to setting more realistically achievable targets in the short term. In addition, it may offer different alternatives for planning improvements directed towards DEA efficient targets, which can be seen as representing improvements in a long term perspective. Thus, the sequential approach provides managers with a decision-support tool for the design of continuous improvement strategies based on actionable targets.
