Data envelopment analysis (DEA) can be used for supplier selection problem due to its multiple criteria nature. In suppliers' evaluation, there might be some factors, which are beyond the control of their management, that are needed to be modelled in an appropriate way.

This model can rank efficient suppliers by a super-efficiency DEA model. A numerical example has ...
