Velosio has announced the successful integration of its SilverLeaf platform with Florida's BioTrack compliance system.
In January of 2024, Florida announced the mandated use of BioTrack for compliance under Emergency Rule 64ER24-1 requiring all cannabis operators including all of their facilities and retail stores to complete the move by February 2024 with a maximum extension of 6 months. This meant software companies had to complete a full BioTrack system integration and implementation in 6 months. On top of that, they were faced with a complicated hurdle: BioTrack had no front-end interface for end users. Without this interface, businesses are unable to submit data to BioTrack without an integrated system.
The state's announcement of close to $1,000-per-day fines for non-compliance in 2024 further heightened the urgency for operators to implement an effective solution. "We're working with a company that was fined, but it was a business decision to hold off on implementing the integration until all teams were properly prepared. Unexpected costs like this prohibit businesses from being able to invest that money back into their business," said Ben Marchi-Young, Senior Product Owner at Velosio.
Velosio worked with BioTrack developers and current SilverLeaf users to create a solution that worked within the framework of Florida's unique compliance requirements. Built on the powerful Microsoft Dynamics platform, SilverLeaf leverages the scalability and flexibility of Dynamics 365 to offer a fully integrated system. This enables Florida cannabis operators to automatically submit compliance data from SilverLeaf to BioTrack, ensuring accurate and efficient reporting while minimizing the risk of manual errors. By combining SilverLeaf's robust ERP capabilities with the seamless integration to BioTrack, cannabis operators now have a reliable, streamlined solution to meet Florida's stringent compliance standards.
Florida cannabis businesses using SilverLeaf now benefit from three key features that streamline the compliance process, auto tag generation, inventory reconciliation, and BioTrack output quantity.
The successful integration in Florida also has positive implications for cannabis operators in other states that use BioTrack, including New York, Connecticut, Illinois, New Mexico, and Virginia. In these states, BioTrack offers a front-end interface, making the integration process quicker and easier. For cannabis companies using SilverLeaf, this provides a straightforward path to meet state compliance standards as SilverLeaf continues to integrate in these additional states.
