Port Automation, Performance & Profitability

Efficient port operations are essential to an international trade hub and contribute significantly to the financial and socio-economic well-being of the local community. Increasing automation in the world's ports is widely recognised as a critical step in improving port efficiency to meet the growing demands of maritime transport.

While port automation promises to improve efficiency and profitability, it must also consider the responsibility for the community's well-being and the environment. This delicate balancing act underlines the need for a transparent decision support tool that considers all relevant criteria. Such a tool is essential to help port stakeholders make informed investment decisions that balance automation, financial viability, and their obligations to local communities.

This course comprehensively explores the strategies, technologies and best practices that address these complex challenges.
