Therefore, “ Port Logistics” has become an important economical development of the country. The study focused on a port-type distribution center, which locates at the southern part of Taiwan, and was approved to develop by Executive Yuan on May in 1997. The main purpose of this research is to identify the planning and establishment criteria for port-type distribution center as well as its establishment advantages for alternative approaches, and to provide reference to governments and related private enterprises. The literatures about port-type logistics strategy and development concepts were reviewed first. Based on the ideas about the orientation of port-type distribution center from 20 experts, the questionare for the Delphi method was developed. After three times surverys, the key issues of the porblmes were summarized. Subsenquently a survey to 58 experts in industries, governments, and academic and research institues was processed. Finally the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) method was applied to construct the archiecture of operation assessment, and the pari-wise comparison was analyzed. Some key results are as follows. 1.For setting the priorities of the operational orentation and development strategy for port-type distrubution center under a global logistics consideration, “international logistics center“ is the best solution. 2.The key factors of the operating development for port-type distribution center include: “infrastructure and information system integration on a supply chain basis”, “horizontal and vertical strategic alliance”, “knowledge innovation and logistics talent training”, “balance between traditional and advanced logistics facilities”, and “global marketing network”. 3.The main function requirement for port-type distributin center establishment includes: “international logistics and resources integration planning”, “value-added services”, “transition and cargo consolidation among multiple nations”, “manufacturing technologies”, and “transportation and warehousing” respectively.
