A2ForBois: wood, an industry with a bright future

What made you want to work on A2ForBois?

I was immediately interested in the ambition of the project. Not only because of its scope, but also because of the variety of partners involved. I also appreciate being able to join at the beginning, as the launch took place last November. This allows me to work on structuring the organization and managing tools.

Above all, it's a project that makes sense to me. I'm convinced of its importance. Wood is an industry with a bright future, not only economically but also ecologically, which is something that particularly resonates with me.

What is your role in the project?

I have a dual role. On the one hand, I coordinate all the partners, Arts et Métiers the project operator. I am therefore responsible for ensuring that everything runs smoothly and that actions are implemented on time and within the allocated budget.

At the same time, I also have to report to the funder as the project progresses.

What are A2ForBois's primary objectives?

First, we will focus on structuring the project. We will set up governance bodies, such as a steering committee, a general assembly, and a strategic steering committee. This will kick-start the project.

The second major objective is to set up the work platform so that everyone can work together. In other words, an IT tool that will enable information to be exchanged between all partners and ensure that everyone knows who is doing what.

The third is to formalize the consortium agreement, a document that will define the rules and how the sixteen partners will work together.
