Wood Supply Chain Optimisation 2010

 







Forest to Market - Innovations to Improve Logistics & Operations

This technology programme is being set up for Melbourne, Australia on 19-20 May 2010 and again in Rotorua, New Zealand on 24-25 May 2010.

What is Wood Supply Chain Optimisation 2010?

This technology programme will provide practical updates on innovations being used by forest products companies and leading technology providers working in the wood supply chain. Strategies and technologies that have been adopted to improve planning, logistics and operations within the sector will be outlined and include;

- Analysis of successful international models for supply chain optimisation
- Optimising value recovery through improved harvesting systems
- Remote sensing and real-time tracking of logs and wood products
- Innovative systems that integrate planning, operations, harvesting and sales
- Materials handling, packaging, freight forwarding and distribution developments
- Key issues facing the freight, shipping and transport industries
- Radio frequency and electronic identification technologies
- The latest international trends in logistics and supply chain management.

As the programme is being designed, we are at this stage asking for Expressions of Interest in presenting - to either the New Zealand or Australian forest products sectors - or both. This is your chance to be part of this major forestry event in 2010. Local and international technologists, key suppliers' to the industry and researchers will all be involved in this Australasian programme.

For those interested in logistics and wood supply chain management, a pdf for EOI in presenting is attached.
