Download Measuring and Improving Productivity in Services Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
The question of how to measure and improve productivity in services has been a recurrent topic in political debates and in academic studies for several decades. The concept of productivity, which was developed initially for industrial and agricultural economies poses few difficulties when applied to standardized products. The advent of the service economy contributed to call into question, if not the relevance of this concept, at least its definition and measurement methods. This book takes stock of the issues met by productivity in services on theoretical, methodological and operational levels. The authors examine various definitions of productivity and the main methods of its measurement. A survey of recent conceptual and methodological debates on the notion of productivity is also presented. A more operational and strategic perspective is then adopted in order to identify and analyze the main levers, factors and determinants for improving productivity and, more generally, the actual strategies adopted for this purpose in firms and organisations. Providing a deep understanding of the specific and underestimated performance processes within service industries, this book will be of great interest to those involved in industrial economics, management science and public administration.

Download Productivity Measurement Methods: Classification, Critique, and Implications for the Air Force Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
The objectives are (a) to clarify the meaning of organizational productivity as it applies to Air Force organizations, (b) to describe and critique productivity measurement methods, (c) to describe a procedure for generating measures of productivity in Air Force organizations, and (d) to summarize research which evaluates productivity enhancement methods. The report has seven chapters and an appendix. Chapter I is an introduction. Chapter II reviews various definitions of productivity and contrasts them with two related concepts-quality of working life and organizational effectiveness. Chapter III reviews the definition of productivity as it relates specifically to the Air Force. Chapter IV provides a taxonomy and critique of measures of efficiency, effectiveness, and combined methods that integrate efficiency and effectiveness measures into a comprehensive measurement strategy. Chapter V draws conclusions from the review and implications for Air Force productivity measurement methods. Chapter VI describes a method for generating productivity criteria for Air Force organizations and Chapter VII describes a field demonstration of the methodology. Since the ultimate purpose of measuring productivity is to make improvements, the Appendix highlights the major findings of the literature on productivity enhancement. (Author).

Download Productivity and Efficiency Analysis Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
This book provides a coherent description of the main concepts and statistical methods used to analyse economic performance. The focus is on measures of performance that are of practical relevance to policy makers. Most, if not all, of these measures can be viewed as measures of productivity and/or efficiency. Linking fields as diverse as index number theory, data envelopment analysis and stochastic frontier analysis, the book explains how to compute measures of input and output quantity change that are consistent with measurement theory. It then discusses ways in which meaningful measures of productivity change can be decomposed into measures of technical progress, environmental change, and different types of efficiency change. The book is aimed at graduate students, researchers, statisticians, accountants and economists working in universities, regulatory authorities, government departments and private firms. The book contains many numerical examples. Computer codes and datasets are available on a companion website.
