Although the third-party logistics are activated and researched in many ways in the advanced countries, China is still on the beginning phase of the third-party logistics and has announced few studies on them. Especially, the study on factors affecting formation for partnership between shippers and third-party logistics providers has never been announced in China, and few empirical studies on them have been done. In order to verify established hypothesis, the empirical analysis is conducted as follows. Totally 500 copies of questionnaire were drawn up and distributed. Amid them 160 copies were collected, finally 155 copies were used for this study as valid samples. The questionnaire used nominal scale and 5 Likert scale. Statistics of collected data were under the data coding process, and analyzed by applying SEM program.

Purpose - This study aims to disclose the problems of both the government and the logistics industry regarding fourth-party logistics, and to provide various solutions at the level of enterprises as well as the government for the introduction of fourth-party logistics in China. Research design, data, and methodology - This study aims to reveal how a shipping company recognizes the creation of partnerships with fourth-party logistics providers, and it reveals several related implications. Results - Fourth-party logistics organizations can be used to achieve maximum business performance as professional logistics companies by incorporating the benefits of outsourcing and insourcing. Outsourcing logistics services through focusing on core competencies and improving customer service can have financial effects and advantages such as the simplification of labor issues. Conclusions - This study did not investigate Korean enterprises through an empirical analysis and provided fourth-party logistics concepts and promotional plans according to domestic and foreign literature. Further studies shall investigate not only the Korean fourth-party logistics model but also the training of logistics professionals to generate profits for both shippers as well as logistics enterprises.

The China entered World Trade Oganization(WTO) last year, thus opening its border to more - and freer - trade. With its foreign trade rapidly expanding and with economic growth continuing at a substantial -rate, China will be the largest container traffic generating country in the world. In the light of this potential trade bonanza, regional ports in North-East Asia strive to gain a competitive-edge. The Port of Busan, the world's third largest container port, wants to capture a significant share of the china's container cargoes. In this circumstance, development strategies of the Port of Busan are suggested as follows. First, to cope with increasing volumes, the New Busan Port on Gaduk island should be constructed without failure. Second, it is necessary to add modernized high-performance gantry cranes and to train crane operators' skill. Third, it needs to apply Dwell Time- Sliding Scale System for transshipment cargoes. Fourth, it needs to develop the EDI network in terminal areas or adjacent hub ports to exchange trustworthy and satisfactory informations Fifth, port authority -needs to enlarge designated Free Trade Zone to facilitate the free flow of cargoes. Sixth, the restoration of rail links between North and South Korea is abundantly clear. Thus it needs to enlarge railroad facilities in advance. Seventh, it needs to establish the Port Authority of Busan immediately. Finally, it needs to strengthen port sales and to open events like 'Marine Week 2001' regularly to attract potential canters or big shippers.

본 연구의 목적은 컨테이너 항만으로서의 서해안 항만 특히 목포항 발전방안을 제시하고자 한다. 먼저 최근 일어나고 있는 컨테이너선의 대형화, 선사의 M&A, 전략적 제휴를 통한 정기선 선사의 수평적, 수직적 통합 전략, 선박의 연료비 상승 등과 같은 세계 및 동북아 해운 환경의 변화를 살펴보고 향후 목포항은 이들 환경변화에 대한 대응전략을 제시하고자 한다. 본 연구에서는 목포항 발전을 위해서 수요자인 화주의 물류부문의 애로사항을 파악하여 개선하고, 또 선사가 기항할 항만 결정 시 고려하는 평가요소인 항만의 이용 중요도와 인천, 평택, 군산, 목포항 이용 만족도 및 항로 적합성과 목포항 발전을 위한 추진업무를 설문 조사하여 목포항의 항로 적합성과 발전 방안을 파악하였다. 설문조사의 결과 목포항의 가장 큰 문제는 컨테이너 물량이 부족하고, 컨테이너 수출입 밸런스가 맞지 않고, 포워더, 내륙운송 업체의 부재, 배후연계 운송네트워크의 미비 등이 지적되었고, 발전방안으로서 항로의 유치, 저렴한 하역비 제공, 배후연계 운송네트워크의 구축 등이 제시 되었다. 위와 같은 사항이 개선되어 목포항의 컨테이너 화물이 유치되면, 항로 적합성으로서 중국의 중부 및 남부 항만의 항로 개설이 유력하고 북중국 및 일본 항로도 적합한 것으로 제시되었다.

Purpose - The Northeast Asian Logistic Hub strategy was established to create a national competitive advantage in northeast Asia. Countries in this region are competing fiercely to become the central base distribution port as the volume of container shipping continues to increase due to the northeast Asian (especially Chinese) economic growth. The primary method by which shippers are improving their customer service and distribution is enhancing profits by minimizing call ports on the key route through strategic affiliations and the use of large vessels. Each nation is planning large-scale investments in the construction of sea ports that can accommodate large vessels. This paper proposes ways by which the logistical strategies of domestic corporations can keep pace with changes in government policy concerning the Northeast Asian Business Hub policy. It examines the logistics system in the Northeast Asian region, analyzes the government's Northeast Asian Business Hub policy, and suggests logistical strategies for domestic corporations through an analysis based on a questionnaire designed to grasp domestic firms' needs and goals. Research design, data and methodology - The purpose of this study is to determine how shipping companies establish partnerships with third-party logistics providers and draws out the implications of the results. The survey methods used were personal interviews and questionnaires distributed to a sample population through e-mail, fax, mail, and telephone. A total of 600 questionnaires were distributed, of which 165 were returned. Among these, ten were excluded due to insufficient content; ultimately, 155 were used for the sample. The statistical data collection process was analyzed through data coating and a statistical package program. Results - This study argues that greater flexibility in policies, administration, and systems will be needed to significantly improve established business practices. In this dissertation, we primarily identify that in order to become a center of northeast Asian logistics, Korea must adopt a new paradigm and abandon the existing systems that are based on the economic and social systems that have stemmed from bureaucracy, inflexibility, chauvinism, and equalitarianism. Flexible policies, administration, and systems will be necessary to improve business practices. Domestic corporations must establish a strategic logistics hub and related network while simultaneously pursuing value-added logistics businesses by increasing their manpower and building a logistics information system. This will strengthen their competitive edge and lead to system improvements. Conclusions - Domestic corporations must adopt a new paradigm and use more reasonable business laws, systems, and policies that are based on market-driven flexibility and transparency. Moreover, social norms and regulations should be established to help ensure political and social security. Korea must also develop a culture of tolerance for foreign companies. Finally, the paradigm defining the policy governing the development of the capital city and its satellite cities in this context must be changed.

세계경제의 국제화 흐름에 따라 중국 경제 중심축의 하나인 상하이 양산항이 2005년 12월 1일에 개장하여 동북아 항만물류의 중심지를 목표로 출발하였으며, 이로 인해 동북아 항만들의 경쟁이 심화되기 시작하였다. 따라서 동북아의 중심항만으로서 위치를 확보하기 위한 노력으로 우리나라 역시 신항을 건설하고 있으며, 2005년 11월 3개 선석을 개장하였다. 이러한 항만환경의 변화 속에 신항을 동북아 물류 중심지로 선점하기 위해서는 주요 경쟁항만에 비해 신항의 경쟁력을 확보하는 것이 무엇보다 중요하다. 따라서 신항의 발전전략으로는 첫째, 개발 및 관리 운영 주체의 분리로 항만개발과 마케팅을 분리하여야 하며, 둘째 피더선 전용부두를 항만개발과 함께 개발하여 선사들의 시간과 경비를 감소시켜야 하며 셋째, 항만개발 시 초대형 선사를 유치하기 위해서는 각 선사별 대응전략이 필요한데, 이러한 전략은 초대형 선사들이 향후 선박 운항전략을 결정하기 전에 실시하여야 한다. 넷째, 초대형 선사유치를 위한 인센티브 부여면에서 신항은 물론 기존의 부산항과 연계적으로 인센티브를 부여하여야 하며, 다섯째 항만개발 시 행정프로세스의 One-stop 자동화시스템구축을 위한 경쟁항만의 벤치마킹도 중요하다. 여섯째, 항만배후단지를 효율적으로 이용하기 위한 항만과 연계된 배후단지 이용계획을 수립하여야 한다.
