Abstract: This paper aims to develop a DEA-based framework to evaluate the efficiency of the supply chain based on the seller–buyer structure and with respect to win–win strategy. This is a bi-stage model employing the CCR model in the forms of input-oriented and output-oriented considering the intermediate measures for two different conditions under a centralized point of view. The obtained results from the extension of this model to supply chain network lead to introduce “efficient path” concept being a path including different components of the supply chain that are efficient in terms of DEA. Other kinds of proper information provided by the proposed model can help the managers and decision-makers of the supply chain field in supplier selection procedure and making efficient portfolios and collaborations across the supply chain network.
