The FOCUS Standards
FOCUS Standards offer the most comprehensive quality and safety standards published to date and provide direction for all facets of cannabis operations. FOCUS Standards represent two years of collaborative work, first building a diverse, impartial consensus body of over 200 volunteers. Then using a balanced input methodology following ANSI guidelines to ensure impartiality.
Each FOCUS standard creates a comprehensive Quality Management System (QMS) for cannabis with custom operations and product quality sections specific to cannabis cultivators, manufacturers, and retailers as well as the following: Definitions; Resources; Management Summary; Training, Worker Practices; Health and Safety Program; Product Testing; Product Traceability and Recall; Product Storage; Receiving and Transport; Equipment Management; Facility Maintenance; Sanitary Facilities; Sanitation Practices; Waste Management; Environmental and Business Sustainability; and Security Program.
