The paper described the essence of evaluating port efficiency using the Data Envelopment Analysis Malmquist Production Index Model. The model was used to examine the drivers of efficiency of 19 Sub-Saharan African Ports for the period of 2008-2015. The importance of ports to the development of nations in Africa makes it expedient to evaluate how efficient ports in sub-Saharan Africa are and what are the drivers of efficiency. The result of the study indicated that the significant drivers of productivity in the ports examined are technical efficiency. A Port continuous improvement framework
was developed to assist in improving port performance. The Port continuous improvement framework is essential because the improvement in the port will have a multiplier effect on all the maritime stakeholders and the economy at large. |
