Two-stage network DEA with shared resources: Illustrating the drawbacks and measuring the overall efficiency

作者:

Highlights:

• We estimate the overall efficiency of two-stage DMUs with shared inputs.

• We explain drawbacks of the existing models in the presence of shared inputs.

• We propose a novel network DEA-based model to tackle these drawbacks.

• We perform a comparative analysis among our proposed model and the other models.

• We present an empirical example to illustrate the use of the proposed model.
