The Challenges against Ports

• Relation between port performance and its collocations.

• Effectiveness perspective

• Kind of Port's authorized

• Relation between Port's Performance and National Economy

Why we are looking to more efficient performance indications ?

• To contain more investments

• Our hopes still waiting a huge role of ports

• Operate port's equipments within concept maximizing income by lowest cost operations

• To contain last develop technology

• More added value

• Logical principles calculation

Relation between port performance and its collocations.

• In the short time it's necessary to fix The Whole assets and increase variables cost that is will be indicate to more productivity.

• With long run , the question what is the best way to expand fixed assists with stable variables cost?

Why we are always looking to measure ports performance

• Generation of a highly competitive, complexand dynamic framework !• Port actors in need for efficient adaptationUsually endorse new strategic directions• Port performance is of great importance:- Monitor how actors adapt to contextual changes- Monitor whether the strategies they endorse- produce the desired outcomes- Guides port planning

How to arrive to port efficiency

• Measurement of efficiency directly related

to the measurement of productivity

• A terminal or a port is regarded as ‘efficient ’or ‘highly productive’:

• if it is able to produce a maximum output for given inputs or uses minimal inputs for the production of a given level of output

Efficiency: Not so easy Why ?

• Port services are perishables and cannot be store !

• Port services are not standard – output of complex !

• procedures with lots of unexpected events !

• Even monitoring is not so easy: KPIs and DEA

Port's Activities and Components

Performance Indicators

Performance indicators quantify and simplify

information for decision-makers and other

stakeholders to assess how activities and operations affect the direction and magnitude of change in terms of social economic, governance and environmental conditions

Performance Indicators in ports

• can help to create a transparent performanceled

ports industry

• Useful for customers and stakeholders

• Difficult to use PIs to compare the different sectors and ports

• Communication across the industry

• Indicators to be set by individual ports

• But we are still looking to benchmark…
