Application of data envelopment analysis to benchmark building outputs

Pinder, James / Price, If

–

To present practical examples of a new approach to facilities benchmarking that uses data envelopment analysis to compare multiple output per m² ratios.

Design/methodology/approach –

Demonstrates the first known use in facilities management of a new analytical technique.

Findings –

A practical comparison of office buildings demonstrates that a combination of high user satisfaction and better than average accommodation efficiency can be obtained. Suggests a threshold density above which user satisfaction will decrease.

Research limitations/implications –

The full potential for this new approach remains an active research project.

Practical implications –

The new approach has already been applied in practice.

Originality/value –

Original research using a technique that is new to facilities management and a challenge to prevailing conventions for facilities benchmarking metrics.
