Timber chain of custody

The register your buyer and your auditor will accept — and it works where there is no signal.

Crews record each tree at the stump, each log on the truck and each piece at the mill, on devices that keep working without signal. The office gets one register: complete, signed by the person who entered each record, and ready for the forestry office, your buyer and your auditor.

Timber goes missing on paper

Most operations still run on notebooks, spreadsheets and photos in a chat. The losses are real, and nobody sees them until the numbers fail to add up.

  • Unrecorded and mis-measured timber

    A tree felled but never written down, a diameter keyed wrong, a log that left the landing and never reached the yard. Each one is money, and on paper none of them shows.

  • Reconciliations that do not close

    At the end of a lot the forestry office’s estimate, the crew’s tallies and the yard’s count disagree, and days go into finding out why.

  • Evidence your buyer and auditor ask for

    Buyers selling into the EU ask where timber was harvested, under the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR), and certification audits such as FSC and PEFC ask for segregation. Both want a trail, not a shoebox.

How it works

The same tree, followed through four places. Each step is recorded on a device where the work happens, and each record keeps who entered it and when.

  1. 1 Forest

    Fell and buck

    The crew finds the tree from the forestry office’s tree list on a number pad, records the felling with a photo of the stamp and the location from the device’s GPS, and bucks it into logs.

  2. 2 Truck

    Load

    Logs go onto a load with the driver and the plate. Material without a tag is counted too, so nothing travels unrecorded.

  3. 3 Yard

    Receive

    Each load is checked as it arrives. A load received differently from how it was sent is flagged, not quietly corrected.

  4. 4 Mill

    Saw

    Each log goes onto the saw by itself and comes off as numbered boards, so recovery is known per log and certified timber stays segregated.

The proof

One page that closes the lot

At the end of a lot, one page sets what the forestry office estimated beside what was recorded, shipped, received and sawn. The trees that need a second look are listed, with the history of every record behind them.

  • Utilization against the office’s estimate, per tree and per lot
  • Loads received differently, and codes nobody has accounted for
  • Recovery at the saw, per log
  • Exported as a workbook for the office or your buyer

Offline first

Works where there is no signal

Every record is saved on the device first and sent when there is a connection, minutes or days later. Two devices that worked on the same lot offline are merged on the server without losing either one’s work.

  • Saving never waits for a connection
  • Records, photos and the tree list are kept encrypted on the device
  • An outage on our side does not stop your crew

For everyone who handles the timber

  • Owners

    See what each lot produced against the estimate, and where material went missing, without waiting for the month’s end.

  • Managers

    Import the tree list, set up crews and devices, fix what needs fixing, and export what the forestry office asks for.

  • Crews

    Large targets, a number pad and few steps, in English or Turkish. A look for bright sunlight, and no signal needed.

  • Auditors

    A free read-only seat with the full history: who recorded what, when, on which device, and what was corrected.

Start with one lot

A pilot covers one lot for 60 days from its first felling. It is free. We import your tree list for you, train the crew at the landing, and finish with the reconciliation page for that lot.
