Changing laws, evolving regulations, and fluctuating consumer behavior — if anything remains constant about the cannabis industry, it’s the change that’s happening all around. Much of the variances result from the industry’s external aspects, almost entirely out of your control. Your business’s success and long-term viability rely on your ability to adapt and manage what comes at you.  

But there are several internal factors that you have far more control over, including your business process efficiencies, work culture and team structure, and the technology you incorporate to bring it all together. 

We’re talking about your company’s growth and how you combine all the things you can’t control with all the things you can through cannabis ERP. 

How can you leverage cannabis ERP to drive powerful and effective change management throughout your cannabusiness?

Employee engagement and communication with Cannabis ERP

Cannabis ERP ensures a consistent message across departments, such as sales, customer service, production, operations, shipping, and accounting. Departmental tasks are streamlined and coherent so that all business units can communicate effectively without overlap or multiple disconnected communication channels.

In the end, change management is all about employee engagement and adoption in order to drive successful and profitable outcomes for the whole company. Through a collaborative team environment, you can promote an employee culture eager to engage with company initiatives and more open to change.  

Data sharing is simplified throughout your cannabis organization with cloud ERP. Real-time and accurate inventory data is accessible to sales staff, whether in the shop, on the warehouse floor, or in the field. Out of stock, incoming materials, chain of custody, and other inventory data can be tracked and monitored wherever they are in your supply chain. 

Cannabis ERP integrates with many email and productivity applications for real-time, role-based task management through updated and intuitive dashboards to streamline information between individuals, teams, and departments. 

Engaged teams adapt quickly to processes and collaboration tools offered by cannabis ERP and keep you able to pivot when the inevitability of change hits, whether it’s related to consumer preferences and buying habits or governmental regulation.

Accurate, real-time cannabis data from a single source

Leading into any change initiatives, accessible and accurate information helps keep staff and leadership alike ready to take action when needed. You can better prepare for change by collecting, storing, and providing reliable data from a single, shared database instead of separate databases or communication channels for each department. 

Cannabis staff who have access to a single source of truth leads to higher visibility and engagement across all departments while making it easier for change managers to communicate and make informed decisions.

Pro-tip: Be sure to include all departments in change initiatives even when they’re not directly affected by the development. This keeps everyone on the same page and fosters a team approach across your organization.

Through your cannabis ERP dashboards, you get intuitive visual descriptions of crucial business and department KPIs with bar charts and graphs. Ensuring employees can easily understand data metrics to track and measure change processes successfully keeps everyone operating from identical, accurate information.

Cannabis ERP helps establish and reinforce uniformity

Your ERP system helps establish standardization throughout your cannabis workflows and business practices by reinforcing policies and procedures that keep staff focused instead of relying on manual workarounds prone to shortcuts and human error without systems in place.

With a formal, standardized approach developed specifically for cannabis businesses, your processes become repeatable and efficient, leading you with industry best-practices and process roadmaps for workflows, approval routings, compliance, and production with complete end-to-end visibility.
