Education & Training Seminars: Whether you are a machinery dealership, machinery manufacturer, forest manager, wood products manufacturer, or forestry contractor, we all need to better understand the "business" of forestry, timber harvesting and wood products manufacturing. Our Business Seminars empower you and your employees to better understand the three legs of the stool and better appreciate the nuances of each other’s roles and challenges. Seminars can be customized to meet your needs and particular audiences and are suitable for groups of up to 50 participants.

Business Analysis: We can assist you in designing systems to collect data and analyze both fixed and activity costs associated with all phases of your business. This can be as simple as designing a new employee time card, to gather relevant information, or the design and integration of open source spreadsheet programs into your business management systems. These systems are designed to dovetail with our GPS-based activity cost data acquisition systems.

Field &Office Computer Systems: User-friendly computer hardware and software to empower you to manage your business in less time and with less hassle. We can help your office and field personnel design and coordinate their necessary computer files and reports, so that data is transferred without delay and duplication.

Activity Costing and Work Study: We can assist you in designing and installing GPS-based activity cost data systems, to gather real time forest machinery operations data, which you can use to compare the performance of your machinery on different work sites. These GPS systems can be used to benchmark different machinery platforms to get real time performance data, establish safe working loads, accurate cycle times and can be used with your trucking fleet to develop a ‘virtual logbook’ for accurate hauling costs.

Our GPS systems collect data every two seconds, store up to a week’s worth of operation on a flash card and are non-intrusive to the operator. Typical outputs are: area covered, tree/log piece counts, distances, slopes, cycle times and more. These units can be factory installed in your machines or trucks or installed as an after-market service. We offer one-on-one on-site training to ensure coordination with your operations and your office computer system.
