In maritime transport chain each year, millions of
containers are transhipped and transported from one
continent to another. Each actor involved plans on his
own and thus creates an individual picture of future
container transhipment and transport growth.
Collaborative planning does practically not exist. The
strong improvements in information and
communication systems as well as improved
transhipment technologies provide the platform for
more efficient planning within interorganisational
transport chains [1]. Nevertheless, these technologies
do not automatically optimize systems based on
routines and behavioural patterns, established over
decades. The maritime transport chain has a
heterogeneous structure in nature. The various
actors—deep sea carrier, short sea shipper, ocean
freight forwarder, port terminals, freight operators, rail
companies, hinterland terminals, road and barge carrier
