Application of 'Data Envelopment Analysis' in Ecological Research of Maintenance of Forestry Mechanisation
The paper deals with non-traditional techniques of efficiency assessment applicable when comparing the environmental management organisations, where their efficiency is not only determined by financial profit but also by the ecological aspect of their business operations. By the application of 'Data Envelopment Analysis' (DEA) the efficiency level was determined for 13 mechanisation working units in the forestry. The efficiency of working units was estimated taking into consideration their business results and quantities of hazardous waste produced during their operations. Projections were made of inefficient units against the efficiency frontier, and sources and levels of inefficiency were established. The results show that the DEA may be an extremely useful tool both at a strategic and operational level of decision making in forestry. The paper also shows the advantages and possibilities provided to the management by DEA application, as well as some limitations of this model.
