Abstract :
Efficiency evaluation of logistics base investment plan can provide valuable information for managers to make decisions on logistics bases. This paper uses basic data envelopment analysis (DEA) models and super efficiency DEA models to evaluate 12 logistics bases investment plans of Zhengzhou city. Four inputs of logistics base area; construction expenditure, operating expense and labor, and one output-cargo handling capacity are used. Results indicate that using DEA to evaluate the logistics base investment plan can help managers to optimize investment plans and eventually reach a best solution.
