The case study examines the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Port of Le Havre, which led to container rerouting to Dunkirk and Marseille.
Dunkirk offers greater flexibility with shorter travel times but higher storage costs, while Marseille has lower storage fees but longer transit times.

The decision-making process considers transportation, storage, flexibility, and risk costs, represented by alpha and beta parameters. Real-time data and predictive analytics are suggested to adjust these parameters dynamically, optimizing port selection during disruptions.
