An important place to start any cannabis-related business is with security. This means writing the required security plan to ensure compliance with state and local regulations. At WJ Cousins and Associates, our plans focus on the following:
- Getting approval of your application either from state and/or local authorities
- Safety and security of your employees, customers, patients, and visitors
- Security of cannabis product and currency
The most cost-effective and efficient way to begin reducing potential security risks is to start before your construction begins by developing a security plan using the overlays and blueprints for the project envisioned.
If the application process is competitive, it is at this stage that our firm works to ensure that you get maximum value for your application through the security plan.
