Abstract

This document presents the draft of an intelligent electronic market, adapted to the Quebec wood chip industry. Its purpose is to explain how such a market works and to show how it fits into or changes the current trading system. The proposed smart electronic marketplace has two main objectives. The first objective is to improve the efficiency of the wood chip market. The electronic market is a privileged means of improving market flexibility and thus stopping the accumulation of unsold stocks. Such a mechanism maximizes the industry's overall profits by ensuring that each company can identify all the business opportunities within its reach and exploit the additional profits associated with them. The second major objective is continuity in business practices. Long-term contracts between sawmills and paper mills are an important market reality and will be an integral part of the smart electronics market. Le présent document présente l’ébauche d’un marché électronique intelligent, adapté à l’industrie québécoise des copeaux de bois. Son propos est d’expliquer comment fonctionne un tel marché et de montrer comment il s’insère ou modifie le système commercial actuel.Le marché électronique intelligent proposé poursuit deux grands objectifs. Le premier objectif est l’amélioration de l’efficacité du marché des copeaux de bois. Le marché électronique constitue un moyen privilégié pour améliorer la flexibilité du marché et enrayer ainsi l’accumulation de stocks invendus. Un tel mécanisme maximise les profits globaux de l’industrie en faisant en sorte que chaque entreprise puisse identifier toutes les occasions d’affaires qui sont à sa portée et exploiter les profits supplémentaires qui s’y rattachent. Le second grand objectif poursuivi est la continuité dans les pratiques commerciales. Les contrats à long terme entre scieries et papetières constituent une réalité importante du marché et ils feront partie intégrante du marché électronique intelligent.
