Abstract: The aim of this survey is to propose an approach for evaluating agility ratio of supply chain units by data envelopment analysis (DEA). In this approach, after literature review the most important agility criteria have been chosen. Then, appropriate indicators for evaluation based on chosen criteria have been defined. For DEA, appropriate inputs and outputs have been determined and the BCC output oriented method has been used. The proposed approach has been examined in Pashmineh Kavir factory. Findings imply that four units of the factory are inefficient and other units are efficient in respect of agility.
