Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立臺北科技大學 === 工業工程與管理系EMBA班 === 98 === Data Envelopment Analysis(DEA)is a contrast efficiency evaluation method. It is an application on performance evaluation analysis in many industry manufacturers. It is based on the efficiency conception of the Pareto optimal solution. It needs to get production frontier. Then, actual production should be compare with it. We can analyze the cause of the contrast with efficiency and inefficiency. And find a solution to improve it. This research applies the Data Envelopment Analysis to analyze the efficiency on the petrochemical upstream manufacturer in Taiwan from 2002-2007. After the reaserch analysis, the conclusion is as below: I. All three manufacturers had great efficiency in the period of 2002 to 2007. II. The scale efficiency of CPC is better than the others. But it is to deal with the waste of total asset, and take efficient tactics to control the excessive input of operating cost, operating expenses and the number of emloyees. III. The early scale efficiency of Formosa Petrochemical Corporartion was poor. There has been a significant improvement in 2007. It should keep monitoring the efficiency continuously. IV. Formosa Chemical &Fibre Corporartion has advantages of constant returns to scale. If it can expand the operating scale, the efficiency will be better.
