Abstract

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 11pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-bidi; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-bidi; mso-bidi-theme-font: major-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-no-proof: yes;">In<br />this article we offer a method of ranking contractors by using DEA based on<br />analysis deficit and AHP. The process of hierarchical analysis (AHP) by<br />providing scales from paired comparison matrix, performs the contractor's<br />prioritizing choice. But AHP has some problems and to solve those problems,<br />Jahanshahloo and his colleagues presented a new model which uses DEA and<br />standard deviation. In this article, AHP's scales are calculated with the<br />extension of DEA based on analysis deficit DEA-R (Ratio analysis). At the end,<br />“Iranian Oil Pipeline and Telecommunication Company" contractors will be rank<br />by the proposed method.</span>
