Smart Port Perspectives

Citation Bart Kuipers and Rob Zuidwijk (Eds.) Smart Port Perspectives: Essays in honour of Hans Smits.

Link Smart Port Perspectives

Abstract It is with great pleasure we offer Hans Smits the latest insights in research written by the Erasmus Smart Port professors on the occasion of his farewell as President of the Port of Rotterdam Authority. In this book, the Smart Port professors are in the lead. Most of the contributions are presented by a Smart Port professor together with a PhD-student or postdoctoral researcher, financed by the Smart Port initiative. This book is an illustration of the interdisciplinary way how ports can be studied. The different contributions in the book are from the Economics, History, Social Sciences, Management, and Law Schools of Erasmus University, but often borders are blurred.

Abstract This paper provides insights into the ways global sea ports are challenged by the need for managing complex information flows, given the developments in global supply chains. We argue that special port IT capabilities are needed to address these challenges by sharing information and planning and executing container transport in a collaborative way, establishing inter-organizational information architectures, and coordinating interests to successfully implement the technological infrastructures. We focus on the role of port community systems that support port communities in meeting the demands of global supply chains.
