What to Expect When Your Company Is Inspected by the OMMA

So, first thing, don't panic. From what I've seen, the inspectors with the Oklahoma Medical Marijuana Authority are pretty fair and reasonable people. Also, they're usually going to be looking at certain items that I personally classify as best business practices, to begin with.

So make sure that you have adequate documentation of all of the transactions that your business has been doing, making sure that you've been conducting your monthly reportings by the 15th, just doing the overall look and analysis of the company.

So what are some of the items that I generally see businesses receive a violation for if they have an inspection?

The first item is actually going to be a failure to conduct your monthly reports by the 15th. Maybe you missed a month, maybe you have been systematically doing reportings on the 16th or the 17th or the 21st over and over and over again. Those are going to be some items that I see that can tend to be a little problematic for a business owner.

As a general matter, having a monthly report filing on file, even if it's late, is going to be a better thing to happen than not having a monthly reporting done at all.

But ideally, you would have your monthly reports completed by the 15th of each month. You don't have to wait until the 15th to file your monthly reports. You just have to have your monthly reportings to OMMA filed by the 15th.

The second item that I generally see a business receiving a violation for is not having adequate seed-to-sale tracking documentation in place.

So maybe you have multiple different batch numbers listed out for the same products between your shipping manifest, your laboratory testings, and then your internal seed-to-sale tracking software.

Unless you have some way of drawing a straight line between those multiple batch numbers or harvest batch or production batch numbers, the inspectors are going to have a little bit of an issue when it comes to your seed-to-sale reporting.

So making sure number one, or trying to the best of your ability to have a uniform harvest batch or production batch number between your internal seed to sale tracking software, the batch number listed on your testing labs, and then also having that same batch number on your shipping manifests are going to be really good on showing your due diligence as a business owner when it comes to seed to sale tracking.
