Pending 2017-2018: Kenyon, G. N. 2017-2018 Faculty Grant, Principal Investigator. David Anderson (2013) said
that the most important issues that maritime ports are facing is dealing with the substantial increase in
port activities, while retaining a competitive edge. The level of growth over the past few decades has been challenging, especially in terms of increased pressure on ports and supply infrastructure. He
believed that part of the solution involved coordinated investments in the supply chains to optimize port throughput, and that this would require planning better landside access to get goods in and out of ports
more efficiently. In addition, Goldsmith (2017) advocates that in order to achieve maximum optimization and financial returns require improving the linkage, coordination and actual real-time management across
the entire global supply chain.
The current logistics environment has a high degree of uncertainty due to the maturing and
rationalization of port activities, an ever changing commercial environment, and extensive business networks within complex logistics systems (Notteboom and Rodrigue, 2005 & 2006 ). United Nations
Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD, 2016) recognizes that due to the growth rate of world
trade, there was a need for improvements in port performance. These dynamics are forcing Port Authorities and Port Managers to reassess both their role and the specific competences of their respective
ports and regions that could lead to competitive advantages; thus positioning their ports for growth. The UNCTAD even recommended that policymakers identify and invest in maritime sectors where their
countries had a comparative advantage.
This research seeks to identify and understand the relationship between various port activities and land
usages with regional conditions and infrastructure. It is further expected that cause and effect relationships can be identified and quantified; thus providing the maritime industry with information that
leads to greater effectiveness and efficiency. This grant proposal supports the data collect, analysis, and creation of the final summary report. The principle objectives of the work supported by this grant are: 1.
Collect data on maritime port performance and regional factors affecting port development and
competitiveness. 2. Analyze and test hypotheses. 3. Produce one or more journal articles and conference proceedings. 4. Write a report containing a descriptive summary of the data, benchmark data points, and
best practice recommendations based upon the statistical analytical results of the collected data. This report will be made available to all Ports participating in the survey and the industry associations
supporting it.

operations to new regions and markets, support new product development and launch, or create new
opportunities for revenue growth, supply chain managers are continually under pressure to deliver new value to stakeholders. Yet few supply chain organizations think of themselves as being innovative, and
resources are typically directed at incremental improvements to existing processes. Let’s change that.
