DEA provides a significant amount of information from which analysts and managers derive insights and guidelines to promote their existing performances. Regarding to this fact, e<br \/>\nffective and methodologic analysis and interpretation of DEA solutions are very critical. The main objective of this study is then to develop a general decision support system (DSS) framework to analyze the solutions of basic DEA models. The paper formally shows how the solutions of DEA models should be structured so that these solutions can be examined and interpreted by analysts through information visualization and data mining techniques e<br \/>\nectively. An innovative and convenient DEA solver, SmartDEA, is designed and developed in accordance with the proposed analysis framework. The developed software provides a DEA solution which is consistent with the framework and is ready-to-analyze with data mining tools, through a table-based structure. The developed framework is tested and applied in a real world project for benchmarking the vendors of a leading Turkish automotive company. The results show the e<br \/>\nectiveness and the effi<br \/>\ncacy of the proposed framework.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ak\u00e7ay, A.E., Ertek, G., B\u00fcy\u00fck\u00f6zkan, G. \u201cAnalyzing the solutions of DEA through information visualization and data mining techniques: SmartDEA framework\u201d. \u201cExpert Systems with Applications\u201d. 39, pp. 7763\u20137775.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>Note: This is the final draft version of this paper.
