Resumo: The article analyzes the efficiency of national civil construction firms, through the application of Data Envelopment Analysis in multistage, for a pool of construction companies, between the years 2005 and 2008.TheMalmquist index is used to calculate the variation in total factor productivity over the period, decomposing it into variations in technical and scale efficiency and technological progress. The results for our sample, point to significant differences in technical and scale efficiency according to the invoicing level and indicate that, on average, technical efficiency scores decreased between 2005 and 2008, as well as the variation in total productivity of factors. The average technical efficiency score for the period was 0.433 and showed a downward trend since 2006. The total factor productivity in the period from 2005-2008, decreased by 7.2% due, mainly, to the negative variation in the technological progress.

O Índice Malmquist é utilizado para calcular a variação na produtividade total dos fatores ao longo do período, decompondo-o em variações da eficiência técnica e de escala, bem como do progresso tecnológico. Os resultados, para nossa amostra, apontam para diferenças significativas de eficiência técnica e de escala em função do nível de faturamento e indicam que, em média, os escores de eficiência técnica diminuíram entre 2005 e 2008, assim como a variação na produtividade total dos fatores. O escore de eficiência técnica média para o período foi de 0,433 e apresentou trajetória descendente desde 2006. A produtividade total dos fatores no período 2005-2008 apresentou queda de 7,2%, devido principalmente à variação negativa no progresso tecnológico.FUCAPE Business Shool2012-07-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPeer-reviewed ArticleArtigo revisado pelos paresapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttp://www.bbronline.com.br/index.php/bbr/article/view/26110.15728/bbr.2012.9.3.3Brazilian Business Review; Vol. 9 No. 3 (2012): July to September 2012; 45-70Brazilian Business Review; v. 9 n. 3 (2012): Julho a Setembro de 2012; 45-701808-23861807-734Xreponame:BBR.
