Deniz Ulaştırma Lojistiği Hizmet Yetenekleri İle Firma Performansı Arasındaki İlişkilerin İncelenmesi: Türkiye’de Faaliyet Gösteren Deniz Ulaştırma İşletmelerinde Bir Uygulama

Öz

Ekonominin küreselleşmesi nedeniyle, deniz ulaştırma lojistiği, lojistik alanında çok önemli bir rol oynamaktadır. Bu çerçevede çalışmanın amacı, deniz ulaştırma lojistiği hizmet yeteneklerinin belirlenmesi, bu yetenekler ile firma performansı arasındaki nedensel ilişkileri ortaya çıkartılmasıdır. Bu amaçlara yönelik olarak, işletme yönetimi, lojistik ve denizcilik işletmeleri yönetimi literatürüne dayandırılarak araştırma modeli ve hipotezler geliştirilmiştir. Araştırma modeli ve hipotezler, Türkiye’de faaliyet gösteren ve ticaret gemileriyle yük taşımacılığı yapan, deniz ulaştırma işletmelerinin 377 yöneticisinden anket yoluyla elde edilen veriler kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. 

Araştırma bulgularına göre, deniz ulaştırma lojistik hizmet yetenekleri ile finansal ve müşteri hizmetleri performansı arasında anlamlı ilişkiler olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Ayrıca deniz ulaştırma lojistik hizmet yeteneklerinden bilgi entegrasyon yeteneğinin finansal ve müşteri hizmetleri performansı üzerinde en fazla etkiye sahip yetenek olduğu, bunun yanı sıra deniz ulaştırma lojistik hizmet yeteneklerinden hız ve güvenilirlik yeteneğinin, finansal ve müşteri hizmetleri performansı üzerinde bir etkisinin olmadığı ortaya çıkmıştır.
