Ghain Secures Gertified Supply

Lumbermens, Olympia, Wa., has reached an agreement with the Confederated Tribes of the Warm Springs and Warm Springs Forest Products Industries to purchase Forest Stewardship Council-certified lumber from their forest lands to sell at their 56 stores in Oregon and Washington.

According to Lumbermens, the deal ensures a steady supply of FSC-certified lumber for years to come.

The first shipment of 185,000 bd. ft. of Douglas fir framing lumber rolled out of the Warm Springs mill and into the Lumbermens' Clackamas, Or., yard in January. This was shortly after the tribe earned its certification from the Forest Stewardship Council, a process that was four years in the making. The tribe has a long history of forest management, and has enjoyed a steady source of income from the forest since the early 1960s.

According to Warm Springs sawmill manager Larry Potts, the FSC certification "demonstrates to the public that this operation is well-managed, and it has the potential for adding value to forest products in the marketplace."

Electronic Sales To Utilities Easier

W3Net. Ltd.. Yelm. Wa.. and Pantellos. Houston. Tx.. have established a fully interoperable connection between their respective electronic marketplace transaction hubs.

Leveraging this interconnection, wood products suppliers and utilities can now electronically transact on the procurement and sales of wood products by connecting once to either W3Net or Pantellos. Rather than invest time and resources in building and maintaining expensive point-topoint connections to multiple buyers, suppliers and e-marketplaces, trading partners are now able to minimize their costs by maximizing their existing connections.

Moreover, the connection reduces management, administrative and data entry costs surrounding traditional transaction processes by providing both suppliers and utilizes access to an entire suite of electronic business documents.

Dealers, ask your treater for this product!

Supplier Cox Industries and buyer FirstEnergy became the first to successfully transact through the interoperable network. Cox can now replenish distribution poles in multiple locations across the U.S. through a completely electronic process that simultaneously updates its inventory management systems.
