Abstract: In most practical applications, managers are seeking to obtain common set of weights to enable them not only to evaluate all of the organisational units on the basis of a common evaluation but also to develop their favourite ranking by these common weights, and to apply their own policies in their managerial systems considering the predetermined priorities. In this article, the combined models of DEA and MODM to reach the abovementioned goals are presented.

Keywords: common weights; data envelopment analysis; DEA; multi-objective decision making; MODM; lexicography method; ranking; common evaluation; predetermined priorities. (search for similar items in EconPapers)
