The results of this research are: (1) the estimated result of DEA with bootstrapping approach using output-oriented variable return to scale (VRS) assumption shows that the level of technical efficiency of manufacture industry in East Java has been not good enough and overall, it still has the potential to increase its output to reach an efficient condition; (2) the estimated result of Tobitregression demonstrates that the level of technical efficiency of the company is influenced by the company’s size, HHI, capital labor ratio, export and types of company ownership; (3) the estimated result of Malmquist Index with Bootstrapping approach shows that theaverage of total factor productivity change (TFPCH) of manufacture industry from 2007 to 2013 hasexhibited a positive change. The main factor that affects TFPCH, in order, are technological change, efficiency change, and efficiency scale change.
