Welcome

Who We Are
FORSight Resources, LLC, is the premier forestry consulting firm providing expert decision-support services to managers and executives facing critical natural resource decisions in timberland acquisition and ongoing forest management.

What We Do
We assist clients in meeting their management objectives efficiently and effectively, be they financial, ecological or some combination of both. We have four business lines: forestry economics (timberland acquisition and divestiture, woodbasket studies, cost-benefit analyses), harvest scheduling and forest management planning (strategic, tactical, spatial), forest inventory and forest biometrics (inventory design and workup, growth and yield modeling, silvicultural evaluation), and forestry GIS and GPS (database design and management, data auditing, remote data collection systems design). Through these business lines, we help our clients to:

• Quickly develop a fair price for a timberland acquisition
• Conduct post-acquisition due diligence to ensure that the acquired timberland inventory at least matches the inventory specified in the sales prospectus
• Integrate inventory data from a timberland acquisition into an existing inventory database system
• Design a cost-effective inventory for new or existing tracts of forest land
• Develop a forest management and inventory database system
• Screen and clean dubious inventory data
• Decide on appropriate growth and yield models for updating inventory and for harvest scheduling
• Develop a forest management schedule as the basis for an ongoing management plan
• Estimate demand for sawtimber and pulpwood in a regional woodbasket study

In short, we help our clients make better, and better-informed, decisions.
