In forestry operational activities such as harvesting and silviculture, forestry companies often encounter:
Challenges in coordination between planning, production, and follow-up, making it difficult to control day-to-day operations and understand what is happening in real time
Fragmented workflows where data, instructions, and follow-up are spread across different tools or manual routines
Insufficient visibility of volumes, assortments, and resources, which can lead to roadside overstock, uncertain forecasts, and difficulty measuring machine productivity
Challenges in ensuring that operations follow plans, environmental requirements, and contracts, especially when multiple contractors and machines are involved
How do we solve it?
CF Harvest is a web-based solution from Trimble for controlling forestry harvesting and silviculture operations, focusing on day-to-day planning and operational control. It provides:
Real-time management of mixed machine fleets and follow-up to maximize efficiency in dynamic harvesting operations. Trimble describes this as mixed fleet control within a system and as a daily planning and control tool
Reduced inventories and increased profitability through better insight into productivity and flows, helping to reduce both roadside and terminal stock levels
An end-to-end flow for planning, execution, and follow-up via web, onboard applications, and mobile apps, connecting scheduling, execution, monitoring, and reporting
Features tailored for both contractors and forestry companies: for contractors, it supports mixed fleets, higher revenue per machine, improved efficiency, and safety support; for forestry companies, it provides control over inventory, forecasts, traceability, and real-time production and transport data
A proven platform with broad adoption in the forestry sector, with Trimble reporting a large network of users and contractors, indicating active daily use across many organizations
What are the effects?
Greater control and efficiency in production. Real-time data and mixed-fleet management enable faster decision-making and more optimal use of machines and contractors
Less administration and fewer manual errors. An integrated digital flow reduces the need for paper lists, retroactive reporting, and manual coordination
Improved material flows and lower inventories. With better forecasting and follow-up, companies can reduce roadside or terminal overstock and gain better control over what is produced and where it is processed
Stronger compliance with plans and regulations. By linking planning directly to execution and follow-up, it becomes easier to ensure that work is carried out according to contracts, environmental requirements, and other obligations
Increased transparency and collaboration between contractors and forestry companies. A shared platform and real-time information improve communication and ensure all parties operate with the same view of reality and can act faster
