The containerization of the load has been quickly growing throughout the years. In 2010, 75% of all loads transported in the world were keep in containers. The main goal of this study was to indentify the most relevant factors that lead to a more competitive port according to the users of the ports of brazilian South-east region. A mainly quantitative assessment reaching descriptive and exploratory subjects has been executed. The Factorial Analysis was chosen as the statistic tool to analyze data. That analysis was driven by 31 variables and identified 8 factors that together explani 75% of the variance found among the 31 studied variables. The identified factors and the percentage of variance were explainde by: Factor 1: Support Infrastructure (15,90%); Factor 2: Customs efficiency (11,97%); Factor 3: Public Power Endorsement (10,04%); Factor 4: Container specialization (9,23%); Factor 5: Port Image (7,68%); factor 6: Speed and security in the operation (7,28%); Factor 7: Audit flexibility (6,67%); Factor 8: Land Acess (6,21%). / O transporte mar?timo ? o principal modal utilizado no com?rcio exterior brasileiro, respons?vel, em 2008, por 93,76% da movimenta??o do com?rcio internacional do Brasil, o que evidencia a import?ncia do setor, tanto para as exporta??es quanto para as importa??es nacionais. O processo de conteineriza??o de carga vem crescendo ao longo dos anos. No ano de 2010, aproximadamente, 75% das cargas movimentadas no mundo foram armazenadas em cont?ineres. O objetivo principal do estudo foi identifica??o dos fatores mais relevantes para a competitividade portu?ria, segundo a percep??o dos usu?rios de portos da regi?o Sudeste brasileira, atrav?s de uma pesquisa de car?ter predominantemente quantitativo de cunho descritivo e explorat?rio. Foi utilizada a An?lise Fatorial (AF) como ferramenta estat?stica para an?lise dos dados. A an?lise fatorial final foi realizada com 31 vari?veis e identificou-se oito fatores que, juntos, explicam 75% da vari?ncia das 31 vari?veis do estudo. Os fatores identificados e o percentual de vari?ncia explicada foram: Fator 1: Infraestrutura de apoio (15,90%); Fator 2: Efici?ncia Aduaneira (11,97%); Fator 3: Participa??o do Poder P?blico (10,04%); Fator 4: Especializa??o em Cont?iner (9,23%); Fator 5: Imagem do Porto (7,68%); Fator 6: Rapidez e Seguran?a na Opera??o (7,28%); Fator 7: Flexibilidade na Fiscaliza??o (6,67%); e Fator 8: Acesso terrestre (6,21%).
