Lessons Learned Laboratory methods for Cannabis testing were not in place prior to the Labware implementation Ensure methods are validated prior to upgrading the Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS). Testing and validation must be completed before system changes are implemented. SLD staff unable to commit their time to only this project due to other mandated testing. During system testing this added stress, as they had to juggle regular work Dedicate technical (SLD lab staff) to only analytical method validation to ensure target production dates are met. Due to being a cross division project, the PM did not have access to lab staff. Access to staff in all departments to ensure tasks are tracking to meet project schedule.

Close Out Summary Project Accomplishments: LabWare was upgraded and configured Interfaces for 4 instruments were configured ELISA Abraxis – not interfaced; but can test Cannabis Validated 5 tests for operations E-coli (flower and edibles) Salmonella (flower and edibles) Loss on drying (flower) Total Aerobic Count (edibles) Staph aureus - Non-USP and USP (edibles) Seven (7) additional tests are in process of validation and method development for flower, concentrates, oils and edible product types. Bio Track added 6 extra address locations to track LNPP business locations at no charge. Notification of SLD’s operational readiness for Cannabis testing sent to Licensed Non Profit Producers (LNPP’s).
