Utilização da metodologia DEA (Data Envelopment Analysis) para avaliar o impacto das TIC sobre a produtividade na indústria da hospitalidade by Cidália Leal Paço, Juan Manuel Cepeda Pérez

“…Para permitir a medição total da eficiência económica (Economic Efficiency) combina quer a eficiência técnica (Technical Efficiency), que se refere à capacidade de um hotel para obter o máximo output para um dado conjunto de inputs, com referência a uma função de produção específica ; com a eficiência alocativa (Allocative Efficiency), que se refere à capacidade de um hotel para usar inputs e produzir outputs em proporções ótimas, tendo em conta os seus preços. O modelo DEA permite a medição das duas quando temos informações sobre preços e queremos considerar um objetivo comportamental, minimizar os custos ou maximizar as receitas. …”
