1.2 Purpose and research questions
The literature review shows a lack of research regarding the changing role of the
port industry in the new logistics-restructured environment,particularly the
integrated logistics between supply chain interfaces; therefore,this thesis intends
to contribute to the knowledge of the logistics platform concept.
The purpose of this thesis is to understand the key characteristics of the port
in the newly logistics-restructured environment and to develop the same
through the identification of key elements and mechanisms for systematic
integration of the logistics platform.
The changing role(s) of the port industry has been the trigger to investigate to
what extent the port industry has been involved in the supply chain from a
literature perspective,through a systemic approach of an integrated supply chain
framework.Furthermore,the study is devoted to identifying relevant value-added
attributes in port supply chain systems,paying special attention to those of interlink
function,capable of facilitating further the objectives of supply chain
integration.With this,the research applied contributes to the purpose by the
identification of key elements and mechanisms for successful implementation of
the integrated logistics platform concept.

The study deals with new trends in the port industry that are devoted to reexploring
the interfaces between transport and economic activities aimed at
enhancing integration efforts.In this type of research,the formulation of the
research problem depends on the researcher’s competence and how research
progress in this field; is to be more precisely in line with other researchers in the
same discipline.Therefore,the question that crosses the research discipline is
understanding the changing role(s) of the port industry.To reflect on this evolving
need and to build up a solid starting point for further research work,the logical
departure would be with literature reviews,complemented with real-world
examples in order to mirror the contemporary port logistics set-ups; therefore,the
starting or primary research question is:
PRQ:What are the key principles characterizing the contemporary port logistics
set-ups?
The main idea behind this research question is to conduct a comprehensive
theoretical analysis and to understand the changing role(s) of the port industry;
this was achieved by adopting a suitable integration framework—supported by
real-world examples.Once the same is done,the next task is to identify relevant
value-added attributes in port supply chain systems,specifying significant valueadded
attributes disclosed from different domain perspectives.
