| Abstract | ||||
| The maritime industry, a critical pillar of global trade and logistics, is undergoing a transformative shift towards greater efficiency, sustainability, and connectivity through the development of smart port technologies. As international trade volumes continue to surge, traditional port operations face mounting challenges, including congestion, environmental impact, and the need for enhanced operational efficiency. In response, the concept of the "smart port" has emerged, leveraging advanced technologies and innovative practices to revolutionize port management and operations. Smart ports integrate a wide array of digital technologies, such as Internet of Things (IoT) sensors, big data analytics, artificial intelligence (AI), and automation, to create a more intelligent and responsive infrastructure. These technologies enable real-time monitoring and management of port activities, enhance decision-making processes, and optimize resource allocation. The adoption of smart port concepts not only aims to streamline operational workflows but also addresses critical issues such as using technology at ports, reducing carbon footprints, improving safety, and fostering economic growth. Methodology This research develops the theoretical framework through a critical review of theory related to the relationship between the digitization of the process at Alexandria port and competitive capabilities. Through analysis the collected data by SPSS This aimed to gather vital information from employees at Alexandria Port in Egypt, who form the study's population. Finding This research revealed that the digitalization of port operations has an impact on improving the Alexandria port's performance and port competitiveness. the research recommends that the operations at the port need to depend on IOT technology and develop the system to improve the port operations performance. | ||||
