These plans help governing bodies understand the security system design for your facility and how that design complies with current regulations.

Organizational Security Plans: Our cannabis and psychedelics organizational security plans are formal documents required by Health Canada that outline the security policy and procedures of a site. These plans describe the types of job positions that will be found within the operations of the site and identify key individuals who are responsible for certain aspects of business operations. The plans outline the roles and responsibilities of staff assigned to security-related duties and briefly describe the security-centric SOPs that have been created for the site.

Hosted Video Evidence Packages & Promotional Videos: We help in creating a fully built-out facility, compliant application documents, and a rock-solid evidence package that is required by Health Canada before you can apply for a license. Our team performs a hosted video tour of your facility, reviews all necessary documents, and helps you create the best possible evidence package to be sent to Health Canada for review. We also offer promotional videos to showcase your facility to potential investors.

Security System Installation Tendering & Project Management: We have years of experience managing security system installations and are uniquely positioned to help you find a security installer, manage that installer, and commission your security system installation.
