The aim of the paper is to verify the information systems implemented by a sample of Italian Port Authorities to collect information on the traffic flows necessary to support the decisions concerning the promotion activity from the concessionary companies. The results show that the Port Authorities ana- lyzed do not implement some integrated information systems.
