Abstract

Regarding seaport operation, a higher quality performance and increasing competitiveness are main goals to adapt to the evolution of international trade. This paper discusses about the competition among Southern Vietnam seaports concerning the strategic positioning analysis, by applying BCG method. This technique describes the performance of business based on two variables such as relative market share and average growth rate. The finding shows up different performances of 21 seaports and how the strategic positioning of each port changes in the period 2007-2016. After analyzing, this research pointed out the growth in strategic positioning of ports in Cai Mep-Thi Vai complex, gradually replacing Ho Chi Minh City-Dong Nai-Binh Duong and becoming the transportation hub of Southern Vietnam. Also, The results obtained would be helpful for port administrators and operators to establish short and long-term strategies to improve competitiveness in the future.

적절한 전략계획은 비즈니스 성공을 위한 핵심 요소이다. 항만운영 측면에서 보면 국제무역의 빠른 변화에 순응하기 위하여 양질의 운영과 경쟁력을 유지해야 한다. 본 논문에서는 전략적 포지셔닝 분석을 통해 베트남 남부 항만 간 경쟁을 BCG을 사용하여 분석했다. 사용된 분석은 경영성과를 상대적 시장 점유율과 평균 성장률 변수를 사용하여 분석하는 기법이다. 베트남 21개 항만의 실적과 2007년에서 2016년 기간 동안 각 항만의 전략적 위치가 어떻게 변화하는지를 제시하였다. 분석결과 Cai Mep-Thi Vai 복합단지의 전략적 입지가 성장하면서 호치민시의 Dong Nai-Binh-Duong을 점차 대체하여 베트남 남부의 운송 허브가 될 것으로 분석되었다. 본 연구결과는 항만 관리자 및 운영자의 단기 및 장기 항만경쟁력 향상 전략수립에 시사점을 준다.
