Operating Overview: IT system implementation
OCR has recently completed a major IT implementation that was initiated in late 2020.
• At that time, Rhode Island lacked a functional seed to sale track and trace system - a basic tool of cannabis
regulatory bodies across the world - and was processing every license and registration manually on paper
applications.
• With the support of DOIT, OCR procured two vendors to deliver solutions in both of these domains. METRC, a well-
known seed-to-sale system that is used in most other adult use states (including Massachusetts) went live for
licensees in December of last year, roughly concurrent with the onset of adult use sales.
.
On the licensing side, MTX Inc. delivered a Salesforce-based licensing portal that combines commercial licensing,
patient registration, home-grow plant registration, and employee registration into one integrated portal that also
communicates with METRC. The system is now live and functioning well.
Altogether, the project budget was around $2.5M over the FY23-24 period and has tremendously improved the
business operations and enforcement/compliance capacity of OCR.
