Richmond, B.C. –3LOG SYSTEMS Inc. of Richmond, BC, Canada announced today that it has successfully implemented LIMS Log Inventory and Management System across Weyerhaeuser’s Canadian Forestlands operations in British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Ontario and New Brunswick. LIMS was implemented on time and under budget.
Weyerhaeuser implemented LIMS in stages, one province at a time. Saskatchewan mills were the first to go live, in May 2004. The mills in the BC Interior went live in December 2004, completing the implementation.
Eleven different raw material systems were replaced with a single integrated 3LOG solution. Twenty operations, including Pulp and Paper mills, OSB plants and Sawmills now use a common system. WeighWiz manages log and chip receiving at weigh scales, LabWiz manages chip quality and LIMS manages raw materials, contractor payments and inventory.
LIMS provides a consistent, reliable and feature-rich raw material solution. It features contract management, production reporting, transportation management, contractor and crown settlements and other tools to allow Weyerhaeuser to manage its raw material business more effectively. Weyerhaeuser now has better quality and production information available to operations, while reducing operations and I.T. costs.
“Consistent 3LOG leads & assignments of resources. This has helped communications and knowledge transfer as we implemented,” remarked Joe Kresse, Weyerhaeuser Project Manager on LIMS implementation. “Excellent teamwork! I appreciate your dedication to customer service and working with a large organization like Weyerhaeuser.”
