Evaluation And Research On Sci-tech Input-output Relative Efficiency Of Tianjin Research Institutions

Scientific research institutions play an essential role in the national and regional technology innovation system. As the source and the base of the technology activities, they are not only the explorers of scientific principles and the laws of nature, but also the main conductors to apply scientific technology into economics. Therefore, the efficiency analysis of scientific research institution has always been a hot issue to the academic and scientific management.Independent nongovernmental scientific research institutions which are registered in government administrations at or above the county level in city of Tianjin are analysis in this paper. The data is from 2005-2009 technology statistical yearbooks. We taking integrated use of multiply research methods including literature analysis, surveys, statistical analysis and operation research to study the input-output efficiency and output performance of public welfare oriented and technology development oriented scientific research institutions in Tianjin.First of all, according to the science and technology statistical data of Tianjin scientific research institutions in 2005-2009, this paper gives a descriptive statistical analysis of the scientific research institution's overall development situation, the characteristics of scientific research institutions in Tianjin and the public welfare oriented institutions and technology development oriented scientific research institutions. Secondly, construct the output performance scales for public welfare oriented and technology development oriented institutions respectively. Thirdly, identify that there are two years'delay period between the science and technology input and output for Tianjin scientific research institutions by applying multiple regression analysis. Fourth, simplify the output performance scales for public welfare oriented and technology development oriented institutions by calculating correlation coefficients between variables. Fifth, based on the two scales, use DEA efficiency analysis and comprehensive evaluation method to public welfare oriented and technology development oriented institutions respectively, in order to reflect the Tianjin scientific research institution input-output status objectively, realistically and accurately. Finally, in view of the problems existing in technology input-output of Tianjin scientific research institutions, combined with "the 12th 5-year-plan of science and technology work and development strategy", we propose six feasible policy recommendations: A. Give full play to the government macro-control function, create a good environment for technology development and innovation. B. Make full use of resources advantage for scientific research institutions in Tianjin. C. Accelerate the property rights system reform, establish a healthy modern enterprise system. D. Promote the technology content and accelerate the development of the research institutes to knowledge intensive industry. E. Put more effort on the original research to support management decision making and improve independent research and development capacity. F. Strengthen platform construction and promote university-industry cooperation.
