Dubai Ports Authority Case Study

Abstract: A 10 page paper. Using a Harvard Business School Case Study, the writer responds to student-generated questions as well as the questions contained in this case study itself. The paper begins by describing the situation as it existed at the Ports Authority in the mid-1990s, including the major players, technology and challenges. The paper goes on to discuss how information technology could help overcome the problems and how that type of IT system would need to work (not the technology, the concept of how it would work). From there the writer makes four specific recommendations related to what should be included in the new IT system and where a new system should be first implemented, e.g., small shipping lines or large, and the reasons for each recommendation. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
