“…Performance measurement is a crucial exercise in strengthening the competitiveness of a port, as the results provide a reference by which the terminal can be evaluated in relation to others (Song and Han, 2004). Although it is a broad concept, the vast majority of the research carried out to date assume the container traffic in TEU as the main performance benchmark in container terminals (Notteboom et al, 2000;Tongzon and Heng, 2005;Wanke and Barros, 2015;.…”

The determinants of port performance in a region are crucial to understand how these companies compete on market share to survive. The purpose of this article is to analyse and identify the main determinants of the performance of container terminals in Brazil in relation to their traffic. Different from previous works, which focus on the efficiency of the ports, this paper contributes by focusing on performance in regard to the competition between ports. Container ports were analysed in Brazil from 2011 to 2016. Tests were performed by using linear regression with panel data. Evidence indicates that from the five main variables, three are related to the internal infrastructure, one related to external infrastructure and one related to the institutional aspect. The results found in this research can help answer the question about why there was a drastic cargo migration between the main container ports in Brazil.

“…With emphasis placed on PPPs and the benefits to be reaped through access to alternative sources of capital; access to expertise and innovation; growth in the development of infrastructure; risk sharing; efficient management of services and improvement in services delivery (Babatunde et al, 2012;Loosemore & Cheung 2015), it is significant that empirical literature on PPP implementation have continued to be evident from emerging and developing countries such as, South Africa, India, Brazil, China, Turkey, Philippines, Ghana and Nigeria (Babatunde, Perera, Udeaja & Zhou, 2013;Okwilagwe &Apostolakis, 2016;Sanni & Hashim, 2014;Wanke & Barros, 2015). Despite this worldwide uptake, Hodge & Greves (2007), argue that this optimism for PPPs is often a colourful way to disguise the true nature of operations in partnerships.…”

Public Private Partnerships (PPPs) continue to gain increased attention from the Nigerian government. However, since PPP adoption in the country not all have attained expected outcomes. The purpose of this chapter is to explore PPP implementation practices and implications on contractual expectations of partner organisations. A qualitative approach using data collected from 23 semi-structured interviews with key stakeholders involved in a Road Partnership and in a Transport Partnership in Nigeria was employed. Documentary evidence was also collected. The institutional nature of the PPP environment; bureaucratic practices in government institutions; disruptive actions of external actors and ineffective mitigation of project risks were main challenges faced in the implementation of the Road and Transport Partnerships. This study is based on the opinions and experiences of key stakeholders on PPP implementation practices in Nigeria, this is most appropriate to elicit data richness. Partner organizations involved in infrastructure PPPs have the obligation to ensure that they are effectively implemented. If partnerships are poorly implemented, there is no reason to expect that the partnership objectives will be achieved, and this is likely to have a negative impact on the collaborative nature of partnership working in fulfilling the contractual obligations. This study is imperative to provide an understanding of challenges inherent in achieving partnership implementation goals in a developing economy. Findings will inform practices within the PPP policy area in the Nigeria context.
