Cannabis & GMP/GACP: Part 2 - Quality Systems

Welcome to our summer series on cannabis and GMP/GACP. A new article will be published once a week throughout the summer. You can access related articles that have been published so far by clicking the Compliance category on the main News & Events index page: Compliance category

Cannabis Around the World

The legality of cannabis varies from around the world. In some regions, cannabis is licensed for both medical and recreational use. In others, cannabis is licensed for medical use only. And in some, cannabis remains a prohibited substance for any use.

At the time of writing this, 50 nations had legalized cannabis nationally or regionally for medical or recreational use. Each individual region sets the standards for cannabis production, manufacturing and distribution.

The types of standards that are applied to cannabis are collectively known as ‘quality systems.’ Most quality systems are similar to each other, using accepted good practices. What differs are the processes they cover, which are dependent on the products being manufactured.

In many cases, the standards applied to cannabis are based on pre-existing quality systems designed for other types of manufacturing or production. Since the plants are grown in an agricultural setting, agricultural standards, such a Good Agricultural & Collection Practice (GACP), can be applied. As cannabis has drug qualities and therapeutic value, pharmaceutical standards, such as Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP), can be applied. With testing for THC and other values, clinical or laboratory standards can be applied. As well, general business standards, such as those from the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), can also be applied.

New standards, however, can be created at any time. When Canada was legalizing cannabis, Health Canada created a new quality system designed specifically for cannabis called Good Production Practice (GPP).

When other regions were considering cannabis, however, most decided not to create a new standard as Canada did and chose GMP or GACP instead.

Each of these quality systems has the same type of framework. Rather than rigid rules, most standards provide guidelines for carrying out operations. The standards are not designed to limit how a business operates. Instead, they are intended to guide the facility toward good practices. The ‘how’ of complying is left up to the individual organization. Each facility is allowed to determine the best way to meet the criteria. The final result is what is important.

Quality Standards Benefits

Besides meeting compliance regulations, adhering to a quality system offers many benefits, including increased productivity, improved employee safety, and enhanced customer satisfaction. But one of the main purposes of standards in relation to cannabis is to minimize the following risks.

  • Contamination of products that could make them unsafe.
  • Inaccurate labelling that could lead to accidental misuse.
  • Insufficient active ingredients that could affect efficacy.
  • Excess active ingredients that could be hazardous.

These risks are the reason cannabis operations must comply with a quality system, regardless of where they are in the world. There may be one governing body with one set of standards clearly laid out. In other cases, there may be several sets of standards that focus on different areas of operation. When setting up a facility, each cannabis business must identify which standards will apply and how to meet them.


Cannabis & GMP/GACP: Part 1 – The Compliance Ecosystem

Welcome to our summer series on cannabis and GMP/GACP. A new article will be published once a week throughout the summer. You can access related articles that have been published so far by clicking the Compliance category on the main News & Events index page: Compliance category

Cannabis as a High Consequence Industry

High consequence is a term that has been used to describe those industries where compliance is essential. High consequence equals highly regulated, and for good reason. As the name suggests, errors in the activities of these organizations have severe consequences. Typically, these are industries where human life or quality of life is at stake, but not always. High consequence might relate to financial or intellectual property security. Examples of high consequence industries include food production, biotech, healthcare, aviation, nuclear power, and law enforcement. Due to the legal and health implications, the production and sale of cannabis is a high-consequence industry.

But even for organizations in low or medium consequence industries, regulations still apply. No one in today’s world operates without rules. In fact, the current business environment is an increasingly complex maze of regulations.

Legislation and standards are in place or being proposed for almost all aspects of business and industry. Throughout the world, regulations govern the manufacturing and handling of a variety of products for health and safety reasons. Other policies are designed to provide privacy and security or prevent fraud. These regulations are administered by government agencies, international organizations and industry associations, and compliance is sometimes voluntary but often mandatory.

Record Management

Many of these laws and guidelines focus on the maintenance, security and auditing of records.

The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) defines Records Management as “the field of management responsible for the efficient and systematic control of the creation, receipt, maintenance, use and disposition of records, including the processes for capturing and maintaining evidence of and information about business activities and transactions in the form of records.” Electronic records management is the digital method for doing this.

Electronic records are critical to doing business today, especially in high-consequence industries where auditing and reporting are required to meet compliance.

Of course, the electronic records themselves are only part of what is necessary for compliance with legislation or standards. The internal policies and procedures that surround those electronic records form an important piece of the compliance puzzle.

Since a computer record is only as secure as the system that holds it, the organization must therefore make certain that the hardware and software comprising that system is secure as well. And since the hardware and software are only as secure as the facility they are located in, this also means securing the physical location of any servers or back-up copies of data and so on. No electronic record or system can meet such requirements—only an internal security policy and its associated procedures can.

While compliance with regulations is dependent on internal policies and procedures, computer systems and the software are often the means of carrying out those policies and procedures. An electronic records management system must therefore offer certain functionality to authenticate and validate the integrity of its records.

The policies of most regulatory bodies include language directed at ensuring the security of electronic records and the systems that support them. These systems must let organizations create, implement and verify security and auditing related to regulatory compliance.

Regulated organizations are ultimately responsible for the computer systems in their facilities and for ensuring that those systems meet any regulations set out for them. However, since these organizations seldom design the systems they use, it falls to hardware and software vendors to interpret the standards and ensure that appropriate features and functions are available to meet them. This is where we come in.

AirMed Supports Direct Delivery

What is Direct Delivery?

Direct delivery programs let licensed producers sell their products directly to retailers, which can eliminate warehousing. In British Columbia, the standard practice is for LPs to send cannabis to the BC Liquor Distribution Branch’s (LDB) warehouse. Dispensaries must then choose the products they wish to buy from the LDB product list.

For retailers, the disadvantages include limiting choices to what’s available in the warehouse and typically requiring a minimum order amount. This process also does not allow retailers to select products based on freshness.

For LPs, there is no assurance that the cannabis sent to the warehouse will be ordered within its shelf life. Yet each time a product is shipped, the production facility must use a pre-paid excise stamp. As a result, LPs spend the price of the excise stamp without a guarantee of sale. The possibility exists for the cost of producing and shipping the product to be thrown away, plus there’s the extra work involved in reclaiming the excise tax.

Direct delivery lets LPs register and list products for sale through a provincial direct-to-retailer program. Dispensaries can choose products from an individual LP and arrange for delivery directly from production facility to storefront. The shipment still requires an excise stamp and provincial fees, but the sale to the retailer has already been made, which covers those costs.

The benefits of direct delivery include:

  1. Giving retailers greater choice when ordering plus no minimum sales and potentially shorter delivery times
  2. Supplying dispensaries and consumers with fresher product
  3. Letting LPs cultivate-to-order and preventing products from expiring in warehouses
  4. Removing speculative costs of excise stamps for LPs and ensuring up-front revenue to LPs
  5. Helping small-scale producers be more competitive in the marketplace by creating opportunities for brand marketing and promoting better customer service to retailers

How AirMed Supports Direct Delivery

AirMed Direct Delivery offers a streamlined service that enables licensed retail stores to bypass provincial warehouses and order products directly from licensed producers who use AirMed in provinces where this is permitted, currently British Columbia and Saskatchewan.

Our built-in workflows that support direct-delivery simplify your processes making it easier for you to work with your retail partners.

WordPress Plugin for Retailer Registration

A proprietary WordPress plugin and API provide fast and easy integration of your AirMed database with an online store on your website. This lets you offer your products directly to licensed retail outlets complete with a catalog and shopping cart. Retailers can register and get approval from licensed producers through the WordPress plugin. Approved retailers gain access to a product catalogue and order cases of finished packages.

Pricing and Orders

AirMed supports different pricing structures for various provinces for both individual packages and bulk cases. AirMed also allows pre-ordering of out-of-stock products, enabling producers to manufacture based on incoming orders.

Order Fulfillment

Once an order is placed, it is automatically processed in AirMed. Producers can fulfill orders, manage payments, and ship products directly to retail stores.

Provincial Support

Direct delivery is designed to comply with current provincial regulations and can adapt to include new provinces as regulations change. You can even set up direct-delivery product availability for provinces that may elect to allow direct delivery in the future.

Our solution is ideal for those looking to streamline their supply chain and enhance their ordering process in the cannabis retail industry.

Efficiency: Retail stores can directly access products from producers who use AirMed, reducing the dependency on provincial warehouses and potentially shortening delivery times.

Flexibility: Producers can manage their inventory and production schedules more effectively through pre-orders, and AirMed manages creating product cases in varying sizes with associated case pricing for each product type and province.

Scalability: Our system can expand to include additional provinces as they permit direct delivery.

Celebrating the 50th anniversary of the barcode

The barcode, originally based on Morse Code, was invented and patented in the USA by Norman Joseph Woodland and Bernard Silver in 1952. However, it was more than 20 years before the invention became commercially successful.

Various organizations and companies played a role in the use of the barcode during those 20 years, but the real success began with a meeting of industry leaders in New York city in March 1971. It took another three years before a barcode that could be both printed easily and scanned easily was finally developed. In April of 1973, an industry-wide agreement on that barcode became the basis for GS1.

GS1, which stands for Global Standards, is a not-for-profit international organization that develops and maintains standards for barcodes and packaging identification.

The first barcode was scanned in the USA on the 26th of June 1974. Canada was the second country to introduce the barcode when a grocery store in Dorval, Quebec scanned the very first Canadian barcode.

The barcode was designed to make it easier for products to be tracked, processed, and stored. Today, these barcodes play a critical part in supply chains across the globe.

Available from 116 GS1 offices around the world, GTIN or Global Trade Item Number provides unique codes for a company and its products that can identified using electronic scanners.

GTIN employs a multi-digit number that is primarily used within barcodes. In North American, the UPC (Universal Product Code) is an existing form of the GTIN. In Europe, EAN-13 is the standard.

Cheers to all who had a hand in creating this useful tool that revolutionized the retail industry 50 years ago today.

Selling internationally? You need GS1 and GTIN!

GTIN or Global Trade Item Number is a standard from the GS1 (Global Standards) organization. GTIN consists of unique codes that identify manufacturers and their products using barcodes. When scanned by an electronic reader, the GTIN barcode provides a code that is related to a specific manufacturer and a specific product from that manufacturer.

In North American, the UPC (Universal Product Code) is an existing form of the GTIN. In Europe, EAN-13 is the GTIN standard.

The GTIN system lets you and your products be identified across the globe. If you hope to sell in certain parts of the world, such as Europe, you will need to use GS1 standards and GTIN codes. Once you have signed up with your regional GS1 office, you will be issued a series of unique codes to use on your product packaging.

Fully supporting GS1, AirMed prints your GTIN barcodes directly from the database. Our master case processing lets you use multi-level barcoding for several layers of packaging or stock-keeping units (SKU). For example, one case could contain a dozen smaller cartons. Each of those cartons could contain a dozen retail-ready individual packages. All of those packaging layers can have its own barcode to meet the retail standards of the region where it will eventually be sold.

AirMed helps you meet your barcoding and packaging standards whether selling to a provincial warehouse or shipping internationally. AirMed even lets you apply pricing at the package or the master case SKU, and custom pricing can be set for specific SKUs by customer.

For more information on GS1 standards and GTIN barcoding, visit: https://gs1ca.org/

Data collection made easy with AirMed e-form designer

For many compliance-based businesses, forms are unavoidable. Even with the most comprehensive software, forms are sometimes necessary for collection and verification of data.

While many software vendors offer electronic form functionality, in most cases the information contained in those forms is not stored in the database. This means relying on PDFs or printed documents to access the data contained in the form.

Our built-in form designer lets you create custom electronic forms that integrate with AirMed’s system data-sources. All fields in electronic forms created using the form designer can be stored in the AirMed database. There is no need to refer to physical documents or PDFs.

Using AirMed, you can automate workflows using custom e-forms to prevent the need for paper-based documentation. Forms can be linked to processes such as plant scouting, nutrient checks, room sanitation, and shop floor data collection. Using our form designer, you can employ drop-down picklists, date & time, checkboxes, radio groups, custom fields and more. AirMed lets you apply auto-complete, file upload, hidden input and electronic signatures to your forms.

All the data is electronically accessible and even reportable.

Form data collection doesn’t get any easier than that.
