This National Science Foundation Project Grant of $681,166 will support research into revenue management strategies for port terminal operations from June 2022 to May 2025. Funded through the Engineering program under the CFDA number 47.041, this award will advance the development of static and dynamic pricing policies to maximize long-run average profit for multistage service systems such as ports. Researchers at the Georgia Tech Research Corporation will analyze pricing considerations for both observable and unobservable systems, taking into account customer price and congestion sensitivity. Models and algorithms developed over the course of the project will provide port terminal operators practical tools for determining optimal pricing based on available customer information. In addition to scholarly publications, a case study of a specific port terminal will validate research methods and enable technology transfer of revenue management solutions to the industry.
