Background: This research conducts a contextual comparative analysis between Dar es Salaam and Mombasa ports, employing a hybrid data envelopment analysis (DEA) model that integrates the contextual value-added approach (CVA). The assessment incorporates various inputs (quay length, number of cranes, and storage area) and outputs (number of ship calls and cargo throughput) to compute efficiency scores, offering nuanced insights into the strengths, weaknesses, and areas for improvement of both ports. Methods: The hybrid DEA model with CVA is applied to calculate efficiency scores, considering the diverse inputs and outputs. This approach allows for a comprehensive evaluation of the relative performance of Dar es Salaam and Mombasa ports. The study also explores the influence of trade-related externalities on port efficiency, providing a holistic understanding of the factors shaping the ports’ operational effectiveness. Results: The efficiency scores depict distinctive performance trends between Dar es Salaam and Mombasa ports. Notably, Dar es Salaam exhibits maximum efficiency (efficiency value of 1) in 2018 and 2021, while Mombasa attains optimal performance (efficiency value of 1) in 2021. However, efficiency values fluctuate for both ports in other years, ranging between 0.895 and 0.985 for Mombasa and 0.924 and 0.960 for Dar es Salaam. Conclusions: This study highlights the dynamic efficiency levels of Dar es Salaam and Mombasa ports over multiple years and identifies critical factors influencing their performance. The findings contribute valuable insights to the field of port analysis, offering guidance to port management and policymakers in optimizing the efficiency and competitiveness of these vital maritime hubs.

“…It is important that the institutional frameworks that have been implemented in the port reforms of different localities do not cause asymmetry in the institutional capacity at the local and national level and in the actions that they can carry out with other ports [18,[39][40][41][42][43]. In addition, another key aspect is that governance analysis should include formal governance agreements, and also the ability and willingness to implement appropriate instruments to regulate the market, sustainable development, and human capital, and therefore maximize the economic well-being or material living conditions [44][45][46][47][48][49] (p. 27 [49]).…”

Cruise activities, until 2020, have presented a significant increase in revenue, as well as number of cruises and passengers transported, and it has become a challenge for ports to respond to this demand for services. In response to this, the world’s ports have implemented different governance models. In this context, in this paper, we aim to review the different governance models, as well as port cooperation, competition, and stakeholders. For this purpose, using science metric meta-analysis, an article set is extracted that strictly refers to the governance model of two databases integrated into the Core Collection Web of Science, whose selection process is polished with the PRISMA guidelines, establishing the eligibility criteria of studies using PICOS tool, to which a qualitative meta-analysis is applied. A limited studies set is identified, that includes governance model implementations, private strategies and internalization patterns in the port sector and cruise ships, patterns of port cooperation and governance, governance models in cruise ports, structures and strategies, and changes in the cruise market. Finally, various governance model forms are determined, all documented in the scientific research worldwide, discussing the various components of study topics.

An Application of the DEA-Cross Efficiency Approach in Turkish Dry-Bulk and General Cargo Terminals

Dry bulk and general cargo terminals are the facilities that should quickly adapt to global supply chain dynamics. Each loading/unloading, conveying, horizontal carriage and temporary storage process involves complex organizational structures and procedures. Planned physical investments may lead to inefficiency under dynamic environmental conditions and may also result in a waste of resources. This study aims to examine the technical efficiency of dry-bulk and general cargo terminals in Türkiye with DEA cross-efficiency and DEA Slacks-based models. The findings imply that the terminals handling iron and steel are more efficient than the others. Besides, on average, the dry bulk and general cargo terminals can achieve higher output levels with fewer infrastructures and handling equipment. Therefore, it may be appropriate for the terminals examined to revise their resource utilization rates and short-term investment strategies. Moreover, since it allows pair-wise comparisons of terminals handling similarly featured cargo, DEA cross-efficiency can play a crucial role in dry-bulk performance measurement. Input slacks of relatively inefficient terminals are also calculated.
