Book Description
Efficiency and productivity improvement are imperative for businesses to remain competitive in an increasingly dynamic marketplace. While business organizations have the potential to thrive independently, collaborating with others fosters a collective strength that can lead to greater innovation, expanded reach, and shared success.
Decision making optimization models for business partnerships are essential, as businesses seldom have all the resources they need, and thus, they require alliances and partnerships with others to enable them to meet their goals. Decision Making Optimization Models for Business Partnerships extends non-parametric data envelopment analysis (DEA) and parametric econometrics approaches to better understand how economic efficiency and market competitiveness are achieved for different types of partnerships and strategic alliances.
Features

- Invaluable resources for businesses, analysts, and academics interested in DEA, optimization, and operations research more widely
- Introduces readers to novel approaches, models, and decision making techniques on performance evaluation and business partnerships via the medium of parametric and nonparametric optimization.
