Corporate philanthropic selection using data envelopment analysis

Fariborz Y. Partovi

Omega, 2011, vol. 39, issue 5, 522-527

Abstract: This paper presents a case study involving quantitative models for the selection of corporate philanthropic projects. The four analytic techniques used by this company for ranking and selecting philanthropic projects are all based on Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). Instead of relaying only on one traditional DEA model, the four approaches employed in this study enable the decision maker to identify the most deserving school.
