Navigate regulatory nuances with a cannabis regulation software solution that responds and grows with you.

Cannabis regulation and cannabis licensing management is a complex and emerging issue for governments requiring a coordinated approach between states, local departments and third-party technology, such as track-and-trace databases. New mandates—and increasing media and public attention on the topic—are placing added pressure on governments to move quickly and cost-effectively while also ensuring compliance and protecting public safety. Accela’s cannabis regulation software automates the issuance of new licenses, renewals and transfers, investigations and hearings, and occupational licensing, and helps regulatory departments manage every nuance of the regulation process.
