A Study on Supply Chain Management of Sand and Gravel Shipping and Transportation in Northern Taiwan Area / 台灣北部地區砂石船貨運供應鏈管理相關問題之研究

碩士 / 國立臺灣海洋大學 / 航運管理學系 / 94 / Sand and gravel are essential raw materials for infrastructure construction projects. However since illegal suppliers tend to obtain the supply of sand and gravel from rivers and caused serious problems to Taiwan’s environment protection, as well as loss have or damage to public and private property and human lives. Such problems usually cause the short supply of sand and gravel, and consequently result in the delay of the infrastructure projects. In order to settle the above difficulties, the government has promulgated “Sand and Gravel Supply and Exploration Program”. Such a program includes diversification of the sources of suppliers, and ocean and inland transportation projects.
In view of the huge demand of sand and gravel in northern Taiwan areas, and the short supply, environment protection problems, it becomes necessary to consider the solution concerning how to obtain sufficient supplies from overseas, including Mainland China areas. As a result of this, it needs to consider the smooth operation and the efficiency of supply chain, including sea-going ships, sand and gravel trucks, wharf location, and port operation. This thesis discusses the above problems and possible solutions by virtue of interviews, literature review, and problem shooting. It explores the contents of relevant laws and regulations, contract of carriage, management of truck and inland transportation, etc. This thesis uses certain criteria to choose the best location of sand and gravel distribution center and provide some suggestions on the future development of sand and gravel supply chain in northern Taiwan areas.
