Louisiana Pacific to Use Trimble’s Connected Forest™ Xchange (CFX) to Improve Supply Chain Visibility
Trimble Forestry’s Connected Forest Xchange (CFX), a collaborative cloud solution designed to provide supply chain visibility in real-time, will be deployed by Louisiana-Pacific Corporation (LP Building Solutions, NYSE: LPX), known as LP, in North America.
Leveraging CFX’s application programming interfaces (API), LP will publish load data from disparate internal systems to the centralized CFX portal. This will facilitate internal analysis of load data being received at the company’s mill sites and allow the company to extend visibility to supply chain partners. The CFX portal will help LP to reconcile load data quickly, identify inefficiencies within the system, and ensure fast and accurate payment to its valued contract community.
Trimble Forestry’s CFX solution has been adopted for use by companies on three continents. The ability to provide visibility into supply chain transactions is allowing timber to move more optimally and securely from forest to customer.
“With our Connected Forest portfolio, we are transforming the forest industry from fragmented and inefficient to a coordinated, optimized and flexible supply chain from harvest to delivery,” said Kevin Toohill, General Manager, Trimble Forestry.
