Abstract

This article analyses the performances of the Austrian Research Promotion Agency's (ARPA) general program by applying a novel approach to data envelopment analysis (DEA) namely the adjusted DEA (A-DEA). Considering the previous findings of Sowlati and Paradi (2004) by defining a new 'practical frontier' and utilising management input, a modified linear programming model and a methodology for improving the efficiency of empirically efficient units was applied. The aim was to find the output for the novel 'different' units in order to identify an alternative frontier of both already empirically efficient and these 'new' DMUs considering the performances of ARPA's general program.
