Abstract : This paper addresses the applicability of Operations Research tools to Saudi Arabia. Data Envelopment Analysis has been applied to primary health care centres in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia to measure their relative efficiency. Results were found to be meaningful and confirm what previous studies have shown about the strength of DEA in measuring the relative efficiency of decision-making units. It will encourage the public authorities to make full use of DEA in order to rationalize resource allocations in addition to other Operations Research tools whose applications are well established in western countries and it should be equally applicable to the Saudi environment with minimum adjustments.
