BISMARCK – The state of North Dakota has selected a vendor to implement a medical marijuana tracking system. Following the formal request for proposal process, the state has awarded BioTrackTHC a contract for an information management system that includes a seed-to-sale inventory tracking system, as well as a registration system.

The system will track the production, transportation, and sale of usable marijuana under the program and will allow the division to track every marijuana plant and every gram of marijuana throughout the production life cycle. This includes growing, trimming, harvesting, and curing, as well tracking through compliance testing, transportation and sale.

The registration system will be used to process applications from qualifying patients, designated caregivers, manufacturing facility agents, dispensary agents and laboratory agents. The system will provide information regarding the status of registry identification cards, which will be accessible to law enforcement personnel, health care providers and pharmacists.
