Episode Details

Are you ready to venture into the enthralling world of cannabis data? Our guest, Joe Khoury, brings a fascinating perspective to the table. We explore his evolution of the cannabis industry, starting from a small advisory organization to becoming a multi-state operator. Joe shares his expert knowledge on the landscape of traceability, the various state traceability systems -- such as Metrc, BioTrac, and MJFreeway -- and the impact of regulations on data collection and analysis. He also gives us an exclusive on the challenges faced while implementing cannabis systems and the hurdles created by lack of access to state systems.

Did you know that the product approval processes may vary from state to state? This often overlooked aspect can have significant implications for production planning. We unravel how cannabis companies modify their data programs and technology stacks to adapt to different traceability systems. 

As we delve deeper into the world of cannabis traceability, we also discuss the software challenges faced by the industry. The importance of strategic planning, the need for agile and flexible solutions, and how businesses can clearly define their needs before choosing software solutions are key aspects we discuss. We wrap up the discussion underlining the significance of understanding software and data tools, and the promise of new solutions. Join us as we unmask these intricate details of cannabis industry traceability!
