Abstract

Purpose: The construction industry is one of the most important industries that must be addressed professionally, and every country must strive to provide the best equipment and conditions for this industry. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficiency of provincial municipalities in issuing building permits based on land condition using data envelopment analysis.
Methodology: The output-oriented BCC model with the assumption of variable return to scale has been used to evaluate the relative efficiency of municipalities of 31 provinces of the country for the first six months of 1399.
Findings: The results of the present study show that among the municipalities of 31 provinces of the country, 19 units have efficiency number one.
Originality/Value: The issuance of building permits has prevented illegal construction and increased municipal revenues, which are spent on urban development projects.
