Abstract: This paper is a summary account of a detailed systems study carried out for the top management of the Matson Navigation Company as a part of their long-range planning program. The basic question to which the study addresses itself is whether or not the company should develop and operate a cargo-container shipping service as an integral part of its West Coast-Hawaiian shipping operations.
