Master's Thesis from the year 2012 in the subject Business economics - Supply, Production, Logistics, grade: A, Heriot-Watt University Edinburgh, course: Maritime Logistics and Supply Chain Management, language: English, abstract: Several trends, such as globalisation, the growth of shipping alliances, the growingsize of vessels and the development of intermodal transportation, have causedcompetition amongst ports and terminals to become intense (Song, 2002, 2003, 2004;Wortelboer-Van Donselaara and Kolkmana, 2010; Lee and Song, 2007). Nowadays, aport cannot maintain a monopoly status as it did in the past. To adapt to increasingcompetition, ports and terminals are forced to implement new strategies (Song, 2004).One approach to remain competitive in the changing business environment is theimplementation of collaborative initiatives between ports. By collaborating with otherports and terminals, benefits can be obtained that cannot be achieved alone. Due tothis relatively new development, literature regarding collaborative practices within theport industry is quite rare. Detailed investigations regarding the drivers, benefits,barriers and facilitators are, with a few exceptions, completely absent. In addition,Song (2004) mentioned in his paper of port co-opetition, that a questionnaire surveyor interview-based research can overcome his content-analysis-based research andhelp to build a solid theory. Due to the identified research gap, this dissertation aimsto make a contribution to the field of horizontal collaboration between ports andterminals.
