- Description
- Port Management Information Systems (Port MIS) are systems that support port managers in the facilitation of port activities. However, little is known about the system and the risk that it presents. Much information is exposed, and security needs to be strengthened. Port MIS helps managers to make decisions relating to the activities that enable effective management and leadership of the port. Inadequate and poor risk management would lead to loss of business and potential loss of human life. This research study focused on the subsystems that make up Port MIS. There is limited research on port management, and more specifically the risks involved in such national assets. The study explored the purpose of such systems and how they contribute to the whole system. The findings and recommendations would benefit port managers both nationally and internationally as globalisation becomes the basis of world trade and economies.
