Marijuana Enforcement Tracking Reporting Compliance - Wikipedia


Marijuana Enforcement Tracking Reporting Compliance

Marijuana Enforcement Tracking Reporting Compliance (METRC) is a system for tracking state-legalized cannabis in California and Colorado. In 2017, a $59 million two-year contract was awarded by the State of California to Florida-based Franwell to create the system and supply RFID tags.[1] The system was first developed for Colorado in 2011.[2] As of mid-2017, Franwell's system was in use in California, Colorado, Oregon, Maryland, Alaska and Michigan.[3] In June, 2017, the Washington State Liquor and Cannabis Board de-selected Franwell for a state tracking contract, preferring vendor(s) who had multiple means of tracking other than proprietary RFID technology, and entry of "non-compliant" data such as production outside of stipulated limits.[4][5]
