Abstract

The purpose of the present study is to define and implement the combined model of BSC-DEA in the sport boards’ performance evaluation and ranking. The study extent was limited to the active sport boards in Isfahan in 2017. Twelve of these boards were selected as the study sample based on the formula, DMUs ≥ 3×(input + output). To determine the indices, some interviews have been conducted with the experts. Accordingly, 19 total indices were compiled and given to 20 research experts in this field in the form of a questionnaire in two parts. In the first part, the indices were determined in 4 prospects of balanced scorecards and in the second part, they were designed in a 5-scale phase spectrum to clarify the importance of each index. Those indices present in the processes of the internal prospective, growth, and learning, were regarded as the empowerments (model`s input), determined indices and customer and financial prospects as the results (model`s output). Instrument validity was carried out based on the agreement with Lawshe`s model. After implementing BSC-DEA model, taekwondo, karate, chess, track and field boards respectively received the highest rank based on their effectiveness. Paralleled evaluation as well as maintenance of the balance between BSC prospect, the linear model, having a holistic view, model flexibility, and high separation ability were the proposed model`s benefits; therefore, according to these preferences, the use of the mentioned process can be efficient in performance evaluation and ranking of the sport boards.
