We introduce an ordinal model of efficiency measurement. Our primitive is a notion of e ciency that is comparative, but … not cardinal or absolute. In this framework, we postulate axioms that we believe an ordinal efficiency measure should … satisfy. Primary among these are choice consistency and planning consistency, which guide the measurement of efficiency in a …
