Measurement Of Air Force Fire Department Productivity: An Evaluation Of Efficiency/Effectiveness, Timothy A. Byers, Susanne M. Waylette
Measurement Of Air Force Fire Department Productivity: An Evaluation Of Efficiency/Effectiveness, Timothy A. Byers, Susanne M. Waylette
Theses and Dissertations
This research was sponsored to develop a method of evaluating the productivity of Air Force Fire Departments. Using the tasks developed by the Fire Department Workshop, input and output measures were defined and used in a new model of efficiency called Constrained Facet Analysis (CFA). The advantage of this methodology over others considered was that it can simultaneously evaluate multiple inputs and multiple outputs using empirical data with no a priori weighting. The results of the analysis provided an efficiency rating for each fire department and information about marginal rates of substitution and marginal rates of productivity for inefficient units …
