Abstract
This paper describes a simulation model of the wood supply in wood procurement. The developed simulation model of wood supply due to taking into account a large number of influencing factors allows us to obtain the correct estimates of the operational speed of timber trucks on a specific route at different time intervals. This makes it possible to evaluate the economic efficiency and compare different variants of transport flows to support decision-making regarding the planning of forest operations and allocation of timber warehouses, wood processing plants and transport infrastructure units.
