The procedure is simple, reliable and useful for obtaining data and information about the degree of efficiency achieved in production processes, so as to carry out techno-economic analyses and, consequently, to modify the way of managing a process or the process itself, if necessary. The authors suggest the use of linear programming to identify the optimum technical and economic results which can be obtained in a specific production process : their suggested method is easily applicable to real cases.
