Abstract
• Reveals systemic challenges undermining interorganizational risk management in ports. • Combines natural language processing with systems-theoretic analysis of challenges. • Applies the Systems-Theoretic Accident Model and Processes (STAMP) to risk management. • Offers a replicable framework to improve coordination and safety across organizations. Interorganizational Risk Management (IRM) is critical in port operations, where actors such as port authorities, shipping companies, and terminal operators must coordinate safety and risk governance across organizational boundaries. Traditional risk management approaches often neglect how failures emerge from systemic misalignments in control structures, feedback mechanisms, and interorganizational coordination. This study systematically classifies IRM challenges in port settings using the Systems-Theoretic Accident Model and Processes (STAMP) as an analytical lens to explore how such challenges are conceptualized in existing literature. Rather than modeling specific control systems, we map IRM challenges to STAMP components to identify commonly disrupted control functions. Based on a structured analysis of 50 peer-reviewed studies published between 2014 and 2024, we extract 233 quotes describing IRM challenges. Using a hybrid methodology that combines inductive coding, semantic clustering supported by natural language processing (NLP), and deductive mapping to STAMP, we identify 14 IRM challenge categories. These are grouped into three control layers: Strategic, Operative, and Adaptive. Each category is linked to specific STAMP control structure components to illustrate patterns in how interorganizational coordination is affected. Findings show that IRM challenges are concentrated in areas involving feedback loops, control logic, and constraints. This approach offers a novel system-theoretic classification of IRM challenges and contributes a transparent, replicable method for analyzing challenges in complex organizational networks. The paper also identifies future research opportunities, including expert validation, cross-regional comparison, and the use of organizational mechanisms to support IRM in ports.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
