Port Performance Metrics

Port performance metrics are measures used to evaluate how efficiently and effectively a port operates. They include factors like container throughput (how many containers are handled), turnaround time (how long ships stay at the port), berthing delay (waiting time for docking), and cargo handling speed. These metrics help identify areas for improvement, optimize scheduling, reduce costs, and ensure smooth movement of goods. Essentially, they provide a clear picture of a port’s productivity and reliability, aiding stakeholders in making informed decisions to enhance overall supply chain performance.
