McCarthy Transport to Implement Trimble Forestry’s WSX Service for Log Transportation Dispatch
McCarthy Transport, an innovative log transportation leader in New Zealand’s Lower North Island, has selected Trimble Forestry’s WSX, a specialized log supply plan execution and dispatch system that is part of Trimble’s Connected Forest™ CFLogistics portfolio.
WSX is designed specifically to manage the execution of weekly log supply plans and provide stakeholders with the key information necessary for responsive scheduling in a dynamic log supply chain. Trimble Forestry has over 20 years of experience providing Log Supply solutions designed to maximise log harvest and haulage productivity and support the woodflow, harvesting, loading, transport and delivery of logs.
“We are pleased to have the opportunity to work with McCarthy Transport, and look forward to helping the company increase productivity across their forestry operations and enhance their service and delivery performance to their customers, with the implementation of our state-of-the-art WSX solution”, said David Joll, the general manager of Trimble Forestry’s managed logistics business.
“Trimble’s WSX cloud-hosted solution incorporates harvest production, log inventory monitoring and in-cab mobile application that supports the electronic load-docket solution; these services are critical in forestry operations because the visibility and reliability of supply is a major challenge. The forestry environment is typified by remote sites, rugged conditions and a highly uncertain production process,” added Joll. “WSX is unique in its ability to provide the visibility required to manage log supply and distribution in diverse and difficult environments.”
