Application of linear programming to forest products planningSitter, Robert Moris January 1969 (has links)
The managements of integrated forest products firms in British
Columbia and elsewhere must make many involved decisions in order to
effectively plan the intermediate-range (one year) operations of their
firms. The production systems of the forest industry involve complex
allocations of many resources among competing activities. In addition,
interdependencies between processes exist and frequently products are
transferred between divisions.
This thesis explains and illustrates how linear programming may
be used to assist managements of integrated forest products firms in
their planning activities. In particular, the linear programming technique
is used to find suggested optimal operating plans for the total
range of the firm's operations — from woodlands, through production plants
to sales operations. The specific details of model construction, the
mathematical programming, and the problems encountered are illustrated by
a hypothetical forest products firm. A linear model has been developed
for the hypothetical firm, computer solutions have been interpreted, and
suggestions have been made for implementation of results.
Although the author does not attempt to quantify the value of linear
programming to a firm's profitability, the many explanations and illustrations
serve to support the view that managerial effectiveness is enhanced
through use of the technique. Decisions regarding intermediate-range
planning can be made by managers with an increased understanding of the
complex relationships within their firm's production and sales functions. In presenting this thesis in partial fulfilment of the requirements for
an advanced degree at the University of British Columbia, I agree that

An Evaluation of the Organizational and Interpersonal Communication Strategies Used by a Major Forest Products Firm in East TennesseePlyler, Jennifer Lee 24 April 1997 (has links)
Fifty-four community leaders from Anderson, Campbell, Cocke, and Scott Counties, Tennessee, participated in two in-depth interviews and a mail questionnaire over a 17-month period aimed at assessing the communication efforts of Champion International Corporation's East Tennessee Expansion Project. The East Tennessee Expansion Project was centered around CIC's purchasing 85,000 acres of forestland and building a chipmill in east Tennessee. The coorientational variables of accuracy and agreement were measured, and the channels most likely to increase scores on these variables were identified.
The results indicated that CIC failed to accurately measure the coorientational variables prior to the East Tennessee Expansion Project to determine if the campaign was necessary. In fact, the land purchase and chipmill may have been non-issues. Instead, it appeared that the East Tennessee Expansion Project should have focused communication efforts on the Canton, North Carolina, papermill and Pigeon River issues. The channel type most likely to increase accuracy for community leaders was a combination of interpersonal and mass media channels, while agreement was more likely to occur with an interpersonal channel. While a general level of accuracy and agreement was achieved, a more precise measure of these coorientational variables indicated that agreement and accuracy were generally low. / Ph. D.
