Applying Data Envelopment Analysis to Allocate Incentive Compensation for Container Terminal Operators / 應用資料包絡分析法分配港口碼頭作業補助獎勵金之研究

碩士 / 國立臺灣海洋大學 / 航運管理學系 / 106 / Container transportation had become an important way for carrying cargos in the world. Container transportation is not only accomplished by shipping, but also container handling, conversion of transport equipment and the accuracy of ship schedules are all valued by liner shipping companies. In the liner shipping industry, container terminals are playing important roles. Container terminals are responsible for handling containers. Therefore, the efficiency of terminal operations is crucial. In order to increase the utilization of a port, many port authorities often provided incentive compensation for container terminal operators. In the past, the port incentive bonus allocation standard focused on the total number of container handled. The scale of terminal and benchmarking considerations were not included.
This study intended to build an allocate incentive compensation model that incorporates efficiency criteria and scale. We used container terminal operators in a Taiwanese port as the decision making units (DMUs), and selected six input items (number of berths, length of berth, design draft, number of gantry cranes, annual rental, and container terminal area) and five output items (container throughput, number of services, number of vessels in below 5500 TEU, number of vessels in 5500-10000TEU and number of vessels in more than 10,000 TEU) to measure efficiency and allocate the incentive compensation of the container terminal operators. The result showed that the allocation incentive compensation model considering the scale and efficiency is significantly different from the traditional method that only considers the amount of throughput. The method established in this study has better fairness and rationality.
