Abstract

Wei, M., 2019. Empirical study on the benefit distribution model of port supply chain under cloud environment. In: Gong, D.; Zhu, H., and Liu, R. (eds.), Selected Topics in Coastal Research: Engineering, Industry, Economy, and Sustainable Development. Journal of Coastal Research, Special Issue No. 94, pp. 793–797. Coconut Creek (Florida), ISSN 0749-0208.Based on cloud computing technology and collaborative management as the theoretical support, this paper constructs a theoretical research framework of port group logistics linkage mode in supply chain environment, and discusses the connotation of port supply chain coordination and the synergy strategy of port supply chain in practice. The motivation, coordination conditions and partner selection of the cooperation of the port supply chain are analysed, and the organizational mechanism, incentive mechanism and operation coordination mechanism of the port supply chain coordination are proposed. Established a contractual design model for port supply chain collaboration, including a centralized supply chain contract design model for the impact of horizontal cooperation pricing among multiple port companies on port supply chain and related enterprise operational benefits, and horizontal cooperative pricing between multiple liner companies. A decentralized supply chain contract design model is for the impact of port supply chain and related enterprise operations. The empirical research results show that the port supply chain benefit distribution model has a positive and important impact.
