A Study on the Global Logistic Developed Strategy for Kaohsiung Harbor

Chieh, Wang-Chao 15 January 2001 (has links)
At present, enterprises adopt global production and marketing strategy to reinforce their competitive advantages. In addition, they tend to search suitable places for establishing global logistic distribution centers. An international harbor with good geography, cost advantage, and complete facilities, will be attractive for those enterprises to set global logistic distribution centers. The Kaohsiung Harbor is the third largest container transport in the world. However, the global logistics is operated at the beginning stage. To match the developing plans of the government's global logistics, this exploratory study is designed to develop a strategy for the global logistic distribution center in Kaohsiung Harbor with Delphi Method and Analytic Hierarchy Process. Through literature review and two rounds Delphi Questionnaire, we find five evaluating criteria (operating efficiency, administrative efficiency, tax incentive, infrastructure and logistic professions) for positioning the Kaohsiung Harbor in global logistics. Five major functions including transit shipment, container consolidation, distribution, simple processing and warehousing are inducted. Three alternatives for global logistic distribution center are centralized, decentralized, or mixed type. Major findings of this study are as follows: 1.Centralized global logistic distribution center is the best type for Kaohsiung Harbor. 2.The priority of the major functions for a centralized global logistic distribution center in orders is simple processing, distribution, warehousing, container consolidation, and transit shipment. 3.The criteria for evaluating centralized global logistic distribution center in orders are administrative efficiency, operating efficiency, tax incentive, logistic professions and infrastructure. According to the results, researcher offers a strategy for developing global logistic distribution center in Kaohsiung Harbor.
