Udział w aukcjach mozliwy jest po dokonaniu rejestracji i otrzymaniu indywidualnego dostepu do systemu. W czasie rejestracji każdy z użytkowników podaje nazwę nadleśnictwa, ze względów praktycznych zaleca się aby było to nadleśnictwo właściwe ze względu na siedzibę lub główne miejsce prowadzenia działalnosci gospodarczej. Wszystkie informacje wymieniane pomiędzy serwerem i komputerem użytkownika są kodowane. Zgłoszone oferty są rejestrowane i umieszczane w rankingu - pozycja na liście zależy od wysokości zaproponowanej ceny, a w przypadku jednakowych cen od kolejności zgłoszenia. W czasie aukcji każdy klient może złozyć nielimitowaną ilość wariantów oferty, można takze modyfikować zgłoszone wcześniej warianty. Zwycięskie oferty moga być zmienione tylko w ograniczonym zakresie. W celu ochrony danych uczestnicy aukcji nie mają wglądu w dane innych przedsiębiorstw uczestniczących w aukcji. System jest łatwy w obsłudze i administracji, oferuje także dostęp do kalkulatora cen i raportów.

The portal LegnOk is based on the due diligence systems created by ConLegno and sealed by the UE. The portal is a flexible tool that offers the possibility to be guided while doing the three phases 3 (Access to the informations. Risk analysis, eventual risk mitigation) of the due diligence. The operator completes the entire process within the portal framework and can print and use the printed report from it (report of the risk analysis) to state the process underwent by the operator. This report identify all the informative sources used in and by the system and can be provided to the authority whether a control or an audit happens.

The Digital Sawmill is a project is funded by Vinnova and the participating companies Moelven Industrier, RemaSawco, Schneider Electric, RISE and DigiWood. The aim of the project was to, by digitizing the sawmill's production and process data, increase the process efficiency by 15%, increase the product value by 10% and reduce energy consumption by 10%. Digitization is a complicated project that takes time and requires resources. It is essential to focus on the goals set. Careful planning is required of: plant inventory, installation in stages, demanding deployment with parallel systems for new automated connections. Digitization projects start with details, continue with details and even more detail, with clear goals of a result of shaping a unified unit. Massive skills challenge. Visualize more, with less monitoring screens.Take control of data flows and take ownership of your own data.Platforms that handle data need to be tested in a harsh environment before. Different systems that measure time, energy or dimension need to be synchronized onsite, and with periodicity calibrated against "approved" similar.Traceability in saw lines can be achieved with redundant systems that measure length with the addition of timestamp. A calculation shows a potential increase in value of approximately SEK 5 million per year.

The main purpose of Lignum is to strengthen the regional wood value-chain in central Switzerland thereby enhancing the regionally potential added value. A focus is the initiation and expansion of networks between the forest and wood industry, and enhancing the consciousness in the society and politics for the wood provenance and field of application. Through its various projects, Lignum is increasing competitiveness throughout the wood value-chain. This inlcude measures to improve the usage of wood as a construction and raw material as well as for energy production. Lignum also gives out awards for outstanding projects in the wood sector, especially in the wood construction sector to provide a great visibility to a large number of stakeholders. It has a close collaboration with the school of higher education of Lucerne. Lignum also participates in the law overworking process with clear written statements at a national level. Every player of the wood value chain from the forest owner to the end consumer is an important factor in the work flow and plays a crucial role for overall success and positive development. The actors in the wood value chain need to know as much as possible from the upstream and downstream actors (ex. stock, products, delivery times, facility possibilities). The close cooperation between partners is needed to facilitate interaction and enhance the efficiency of internal processes and the whole process chain. Supporting policy development is essential for having a clear strategic positioning to boost the development of the wood sector. 

Improved work safety through a sensor node network which connects to anyone carrying such a node and provides information about the current danger situation over a license-free band using Bluetooth low energy (BLE). For example: in a tree felling operation with a harvester which is supported by a forest worker, any person with such a little IT-device in his / her pocket (such as supervision personal, field forester, …) will get information about the position of the harvester and the work the harvester is doing. On the other hand, also the harvester has the information about these people. Risk alert warnings are sent to actors automatically, risk zones and risk status can be retrieved from actors, offenses of critical overlaps in risk safety zones are identified. The system is using u-Blox M8N GPS modules and map visualization on screens. The information gets translated to a danger situation depending on the individual work-situation (for example larger danger area when the harvester is cutting a tree than while driving). Communication of 150 - 700m, up to 9 slave nodes and battery allows 50h usage. GPS accuracy around 2.5m under forest conditions. The system may connect to a Cloud. This opens further data processing options, such as inclusion of passers-by via GSM-net or team-oriented data analysis for work-safety education needs. 

With Woodlogistics, a modular software, the entire wood procurement process is controlled and optimised from the forest via the logging companies and hauliers to the sawmills. The aim of the web-based system solution is to make the purchase of roundwood by sawmills more efficient, to provide continuous information on the current status and thus to increase the trust of all parties involved. The basis for this is that the essential information can be retrieved quickly and transparently by the right people at any time.

The platform comprises three modules:

1. Roundwood takeover module: provides up-to-date online information and stores all relevant documents on roundwood transport to the wood-processing company. In addition, the data is automatically synchronised with the measuring system on the factory site. 
2. Information and communication module: Stands for simple, fast and cross-company communication. It contains the location-independent provision of all essential information for suppliers, log buyers and hauliers. It also provides transfer data, the forest delivery note and individual master data.
3. Planning and control module: With this module, purchasing budgets can be allocated with the current target/actual status. It also contains a closing entry module with automatic transfer to the ERP system. The included freight cost module enables transport controlling.

Electronic timber tracking is a single electronic register of Ukrainian timber. Permanent forest users are obliged to electronically tag each log (or in case of firewood each batch) enabling to establish the legality of its harvesting, namely: description of the log, place and time, name of the team that carried out the procurement, transport document. Thus the system digitally represents the supply chain from forest to the buyer at the first processing facility. Electronic timber accounting has been implemented in Ukraine in phases since 2009, and is still running. At first the system was used only by permanent users under the State Agency of Forest Resources of Ukraine (SFRA) and since 2020 it becomes obligatory to all permanent forest users in Ukraine. 

Technology, equipment and software come from Latchbacher (AT) and are adapted to the Ukrainian conditions. For foresters, as key users, the system decreases the time to register, process and report on sales of unprocessed timber. At the same time, it is also freely accessible for the general public on the website. Anyone can track the legality of timber origin knowing the number of the tag, or invoice number, or truck license plate. As of December 2019 electronic timber tracking is carried out by 504 enterprises (incl. 297 enterprises of the SFRA). Ministries and agencies are also connected to the system for control and information exchange purposes. In total, more than 3,700 mobile users are connected.
