“One bank used data envelopment analysis (DEA) to substantially improve its branch productivity and profits while maintaining service quality. It identified over $6million of annual expense savings not identifiable with traditional financial and operating ratio analysis in its 33-branch system.” Source: Sherman & Ladino, “Interfaces 25”, Journal of Institute for Operations Research and the Management Sciences.

In the public sector, governments are constantly seeking better value for tax payers’ money, while the emergence of a more global economy has intensified competitive pressures on commercial companies.
