COMPARISON OF THE PORT AUTHORITY'S EFFICIENCY IN TURKEY

Abstract

Purpose- The ports, which are a gateway to international trade, directly affects the country's economy, so their efficiency has vital role for all countries. With the scarce resources, effective usage of inputs become important. Input factors like terminal area or number of docks are hard to improve or if possible are very cost-oriented. Therefore, using this limited factors to their maximum capacity becomes one of the main problem in port management. 

Methodology- In order to increase ports efficiency, firstly their actual performances should be determined. With respect to this aspect, in this study port authority’s efficiencies are compared with data envelopment analysis.

Findings- Ambarlı and İzmir port authorities are found as the most efficient and İskenderun is found as least efficient one.

Conclusion: Performance measurement is the first step to improve performance. In this study, port authority’s efficiency is compared and results are shared.
