Application of the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and Constrained Facet Analysis (CFA) Models to Measure Technical Productivity Improvements at Newark Air Force Station, Ohio.
Abstract
This research advances the application of the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and the Constrained Facet Analysis (CFA) models to measure total factor technical productivity on maintenance levels above the Cost Center at Headquarters Aerospace Guidance and Metrology Center (HQ AGMC/MA). Input resources consumed and output quantities produced for eighteen Cost Centers, five Branches, four Divisions and the Directorate within AGMC/MA were collected, evaluated aggregated and applied to the DEA/CFA models for the Fiscal Year 1983 through the second quarter of the Fiscal Year 1985. Eleven Cost Centers, four Branches, two Divisions and the Directorate were then compared against themselves over those ten observation quarters and the analyses were discussed and validated by different HQ AGMC/MA management levels. The results of this research were deemed acceptable by these using managers as a useful aid to their decision making and demonstrates the capability of the DEA/CFA models to measure total factor technical productivity on maintenance levels above the Cost Center.
