| Efficiency is measured in terms of the time it takes to complete a task from when the task is initiated to when it is successfully completed. The units used to record the time must be uniform for all tasks (i.e., milliseconds, seconds, minutes, etc). | Efficiency is measured in terms of the time it takes to complete a task from when the task is initiated to when it is successfully completed.
