This research uses an optimisation model, based on the Six Sigma methodology, which assists marine container terminal operators to minimize trucks’ congestions, as a defect in the global containerisation and smoothing the gate activity to reduce trucks’ turn-around times. The main purpose of this paper is implementing the Six Sigma in the landside of marine container terminals to reduce the…
