Highlights We propose two DEA approaches to find targets for two-stage network structures. Outcomes of the proposed approaches are applied to plan in feasible region. Proposed models ensure that TSPs would be efficient in their current capacity.
Abstract To meet green supply chain management’s requirements of a company and its transportation service providers (TSPs), it is essential to set clear, achievable, and realistic targets. This paper proposes two data envelopment analysis (DEA) approaches to find targets for two-stage network structures. The objective of proposed approaches is to plan in feasible region. The feasible region specifies bounds to ensure targets are within current operational capacity of TSPs. Applying the approaches to set targets for 24 TSPs lead to different results. However, proposed models ensure that the TSPs would be efficient in their current capacity.
