This paper presents an integrated location-allocation model balancing efficiency and equity criteria. The new formulation combines two domains: facility location and data envelopment analysis. To support the decision maker with more realistic solutions based on the optimal location-allocation decisions, we endogenize the outputs of the model as a function dependent on the allocation variables. To illustrate the viability of the proposed approach, we investigated the potential application of the model to the design of an emergency medical service system.
