MHG Systems Ltd and Polish Research Innovation Group Ltd – R.I.G. – build up an enterprise resource management system for pellet production and short rotation forestry (SRF) in Poland.  As a first phase the delivery consists of management systems for R.I.G.´s own pellet production based on agro wastes, wood wastes and SRF. MHG Pellet ERP and MHG SRF ERP enable tracing of origin of feedstock, management and monitoring  of feedstock quality and quantity, logistics, and development of carbon footprint of pellet supply chain.

The agreed management modules are tailor-made from MHG Bioenergy ERP, management and map service entity, provided by MHG Systems. The delivery gets started  in the beginning of March 2010.

Now we can prove out to our customers top quality  and transparency of our pellet production. With expertise and novel technology of MHG linked with our novel pellet production and SRF concepts we are capable to launch to the Polish and global market totally new business model.
