Research On Evaluation Index System Of Competitiveness Of Logistics Industrial Cluster

To accelerate the development of logistics industrial cluster is an important and efficient way to boost regional economy and promote regional competitiveness. The healthy development of logistics industrial cluster not only has some effect on the growth of logistics and other relevant industries, but also can influence the promotion of regional economy's power. By studying and assessing the competitiveness of logistics industrial cluster, for one thing, we can get to know its current development status and find out the existing problems, for the other thing, we can provide a direction for its development. So it appears quite significant to do research about the competitiveness of logistics industrial cluster.(1) Searching and collecting a great amount of references at home and abroad about industrial cluster and logistics industrial cluster, then getting familiar with the concept, characteristic, classification and competitive edge of industrial cluster and logistics, giving a definition to logistics industrial cluster which refers to a spatial combination of logistics enterprises and other supportive enterprises and provides logistics service for the whole society.(2) By analyzing industrial competitiveness'connotation and absorbing domestic and overseas theories of industrial competitiveness in a reasonable way, defining the competitiveness of logistics industrial cluster as the sum of current profitability and future development capability.(3) Basing Diamond Theory, having a deep research on the decisive factors of logistics industrial cluster's competitiveness, then building the model and discussing every decisive factor in detail.(4) Taking several decisive factors as fist-class indexes, sorting out second-class and third-class indexes by analyzing and studying references, and gathering all the selected together to form a index pool, then inviting experts to evaluate its importance, removing unreasonable indexes with high correlation.(5) Selecting Dalian Port as object of research, designing questionnaires that involve index proportion and the importance of index, the inviting ten experts to give a mark to Dalian Port. By calculating the figures from the collected questionnaires, coming to a conclusion about the competitiveness of Dalian port.
