Today, used of mathematical models of operations research in order to evaluate the performance of systems (Such as management system) that consider set of activities at the same time, as an indicator of incoming and outgoing. Data envelopment analysis is one of the effective methods for identifying the functions of decision-makers and useful tools for understanding the decision-making environment by first processing information. This study will pay to evaluate the efficiency of Tabriz municipality in 2014 and 2012, according to official documents; by using income, current costs and municipal population as input components and use the index construction costs of urban development as an indicator of the urban development. Applied-analytical method was used and statistical population includes Municipals of Tabriz. Data Envelopment Analysis and Malmquist model is used to determine the efficiency ratio of DMUs. According to the general results of the research, urban areas 2 and 9, with a numerical value of 1, are fully functional. The rest of the regions have proven to be worthwhile. Therefore, the inefficiency region cannot be seen in both time zones. Also, according to the Malmquist index, performance changes in the five urban areas have shown a positive and upward trend.
