Abstract |
This paper evaluates the technical efficiency ratios (ER) using data envelopment analysis (DEA) technique of construction industry. The analysis is based on input-output data over the observation period. The results show an overall increasing trend of the technical efficiency at the average annual rate of 0.83% in the subperiods. Furthermore, the factors affecting the technical efficiency level and its growth have been identified. The higher technical efficiency ratios would come from the construction firms with less intensive capital, larger size, lower degree of subcontracting and lower proportion of intermediate input consumption. |
