Biomass On-line Management System: BI.O.MA.S (original) (raw)

A new tool that will exploit the benefits of ICT technology and promote biomass entrepreneurship is presented: BI.O.MA.S. This new approach is based on a web-based tool for the real-time biomass supply chain management, an online marketplace combined with an auction platform for biomass products/services and the release of an app for smartphones and mobile devices. The goals and the novelty of Biomass-On-line-ManagementSystem (BI.O.MA.S.) will be the creation of an integrated, online system which will help the interactions between the several actors of the biomass market and the agricultural sector, contribute to domestic and international bioenergy trade, and increase business-to-business, business-to-consumers and e-commerce in agriculture.
