Summary/Abstract: A concept of measurement of technical efficiency based on the integrated use of the SFA method (Stochastic Frontier Approach) and the DEA method (Data Envelopment Analysis) was presented in the paper. The use of the integrated approach that combines the advantages of both methods while limiting their weaknesses allows to compare the results and to formulate reliable conclusions. The presented concept can be treated as a new proposal and development for the use of modern methods for assessing the efficiency of objects, with particular emphasis of research samples burdened with an element of randomness.
