The FOCUS Standards offer the most comprehensive quality and safety standards published to date and provide direction for all facets of cannabis operations. The FOCUS Standards represent two years of collaborative work, first building a diverse, impartial consensus body and then crafting each standard using balanced input methodology. Each standard listed is available as a complete, stand-alone document (custom modular versions for vertically integrated operations may be available on request).
Each of the FOCUS Standards contains custom operations and product quality sections specific to that topic. They also cover the following standard topics: 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.
