Abstract

The growing trade process is pushing the importing and exporting ratio of products at ports in Vietnam. The total amount of goods is determined by analyzing the effectiveness of products that are delivered at ports. Thus, this research presents a whole performance picture of the port logistics operation process at two airports and six seaport logistics companies in Vietnam to describe exchanging products by utilizing additive trend methods to formulate the efficiency and rank them from previous periods to future terms. Based on the prediction analysis, the best accuracy result is calculated by the additive Holt Winters method when the mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) indicators remain at the standard level, and its average qualification is also the lowest. Combining the actual and prediction values, the ranking of all ports accordingly by year during the past, current, and future time periods from 2011–2022 is obtained after calculating the final efficiency via the super-SBM model. The empirical result of the current and estimated efficiency denotes that Da Nang port logistics is always selected as the best port logistics company and maintained the first ranking with consistently high scores on the basis of the performance qualification. The empirical analysis result proposes the status quo of port logistics companies in Vietnam from the past to future to describe the amount of exchanging goods.
