DEA Comprehensive Evaluation on Enterprise’s Technology Innovation Capacity

Abstract

As evaluation factors of enterprise technology innovation capacity are very complicated, evaluation methods commonly used do not consider interrelationships between every capacity element, which results in subjectivity of evaluation results. Because non-parametric methods can be used to deal with evaluation problems with many input and output, this thesis proposes DEA evaluation idea and establish DEA evaluation module. Through practical case study, optimum value analysis of sample enterprise, returns to scale analysis and projection analysis, relatively efficient enterprises are identified and adjustment proposals are put forth for inefficient enterprises. Case study shows that: DEA evaluation method is an efficient method to evaluate enterprise technology innovation capacity.
