Forestry and timber software for tracking timber from forest to port

Overview

Why? Weighbridge tickets, grading records, stock figures and export paperwork often live in separate systems, so someone ends up retyping them and checking for mistakes. We connect those systems so the figures flow from the forest to the port on their own. You get fewer errors, faster invoicing and a clear view of what is happening at every site. We've been building systems for forestry and timber export operations since 2012.

Challenges

🌲

Complex Supply Chain Tracking

Timber passes through many hands between the forest and the port, with quality checks and rules at each step. General business software isn't built to follow it.
πŸ“

Quality Control & Grading

Grading and quality checks need careful records you can trace from the mill to the ship, often across several sites.
πŸ“„

Export Compliance

Exporting timber means a lot of paperwork, including plant health (phytosanitary) certificates, and each country has its own rules.
πŸ“Š

Up-to-date Figures

Mills, ports and deliveries all need current figures, but those figures sit in different systems at different sites.

What We Do

Custom Forestry ERP Integration

We build business systems (ERP) that follow the way forestry actually works, from the forest through to export. They connect to the mill equipment, weighbridges and quality checks you already have.

  • Connections to mill systems
  • Stock tracking
  • Grading records
  • Export paperwork filled in automatically

Real-time Weighbridge Systems

We connect your weighbridges straight to your business system. Each delivery is recorded as the truck is weighed, the invoice is raised automatically, and stock figures update across every port site.

  • Truck deliveries processed automatically
  • Weight and grade recorded as it happens
  • Invoices raised straight away
  • Port logistics kept in step

Management Dashboards

We build dashboards that show managers how operations, quality and finances are tracking at every site and for every export, using current figures instead of last month's spreadsheet.

  • See operations as they happen
  • Quality trends
  • Export tracking
  • Financial reports that build themselves

Export Paperwork

Export documents are filled in from the figures already in your grading, stock and logistics systems, so the paperwork matches what was shipped and nobody has to type it twice.

  • Phytosanitary (plant health) certificates
  • Export permits
  • Packing declarations
  • Shipping documents

Case Studies

FAQ

What forestry systems do you integrate?

We connect weighbridges (truck scales), mill systems, timber grading, accounting and ERP software (MYOB, Xero, SAP), transport and logistics systems, and export paperwork. The aim is that you can follow the timber from the forest to the port without anyone retyping the figures along the way.


Can you integrate weighbridge systems with our ERP?

Yes. Connecting weighbridges to business systems is one of the main things we do for forestry. Trucks weigh in and out, and the system records the full, empty and net weights, matches them to the delivery order, works out the payment from grade and weight, and raises the invoice. Nobody has to type the tickets in.


How do you handle timber export compliance documentation?

We automate the paperwork Australian timber exports need: phytosanitary (plant health) certificates, export permits, packing declarations and shipping documents. The system takes the figures straight from your grading, stock and logistics systems, so the documents match what was actually shipped and nobody has to fill them in by hand.


Do you work with plantation forestry and native forestry operations?

Our own forestry work has been in timber export and port operations. Plantation, native forest and mill operations each track stock, grading and compliance a little differently, so we set up and connect systems to match the way your operation actually works rather than forcing a standard template on it.


How much does forestry system integration cost?

It depends on how many systems and sites are involved (weighbridge, mill, grading, logistics, export paperwork), how much data needs to move, and how many of your own rules need building in. We look at the job first and give you a fixed quote after a free initial chat. If you want a deeper look first, our $5,000 Process & Systems Audit gives you a written report on which connections would make the most difference.
