Logistics Performance Index
• Index and ranking based on a worldwide survey of global freight forwarders and express carriers
• Compares 155 countries• Survey conducted every two years• Panama dropped from 51 st in 2010
to 61 st in 2012• Does it matter?• Is it fair?• How should Panama’s logistics performance be
evaluated?• How can Panama’s logistics improve?

Logistics Performance Index
� International LPI– Qualitative evaluation of six core logistics performance components– Sorts countries by scores and ranks– Each surveyor rates 8 countries
� Domestic LPI– Qualitative and quantitative assessment of the countries logistics
environment– Provides indicators, no ranking– Each surveyor rates only the country they work in
� Ranking is only based on international LPI

Panama’s Score International LPI
� Partial explanation– Small change in score– Small sample of opinions– Rank is from people
outside Panama– People who rank Panama
may not know Panama logistics
– Focus of LPI is on import & export not transshipment
� Currently working with World Bank to improve LPI

Panama’s International “Logistics” Image
� Panama Canal� Many projects underway
– Canal expansion– Roads– Metro– Bridge of the Americas– New Atlantic port
� Network connecting Panama� Ideally Panama functions
like a single port� Evaluating present and
future

What We have learned about logistics
performance
� Network is fragile� Ports sometimes refusing business� Ports near capacity� Rail capacity dependent on port operations� Labor issues magnify the problems� Poor land connectivity on the Pacific� Arrivals coming in bigger batches � Big ships not well planned for� Inconsistent integration ports/railroad� Customers unhappy with lack of integration� Lack of visibility� Poor awareness of integration issues � SIGA perceived to be not working� Many customs activities perceived to not add value� No network performance measures

Transshipment is Key to Panama’s Future

Direct service
� Must measure network performance– Single data repository– Mandatory reporting
� Must improve network performance– Port/rail integration
� Must improve network visibility– New technology
� Must increase network capacity– Pacific port– Rail connectivity– Land connectivity on Pacific
