CRA Facility Security, Compliance
& Certification
-
Planning & Compliance
Launch your CRA-licensed facility with confidence. We provide regulatory-aligned security walkthroughs, emergency planning, and risk assessments that satisfy CRA inspection requirements and help you avoid costly violations.
-
Security Systems & SOPs
We help you implement real-world, tested security solutions — including access control protocols, internal theft prevention, armored transport SOPs, and staff readiness plans designed specifically for Michigan’s cannabis industry.
-
Training & Documentation
From employee de-escalation training to site-specific Emergency Action Plans, we deliver the tools and documentation needed to stay CRA-compliant, pass inspections, and potentially reduce insurance costs.
Operating a CRA-licensed facility comes with real risks — both from outside threats and internal vulnerabilities. While security systems are required by the state, many facilities stop at basic camera setups or outdated protocols — leaving gaps that can lead to:
CRA violations and fines
Failed inspections or license delays
Internal theft or cash diversion
Inadequate emergency response planning
Increased insurance costs
At BHS Tactics & Consulting, we don’t just help you “check the box” — we help you build a culture of safety, responsibility, and operational control. With law enforcement-trained consultants and a practical, on-site approach, we deliver solutions that meet CRA standards and prepare your staff for real-world incidents.
We speak the language of regulators, insurers, and operators.
We customize every plan to your building, your team, and your risk profile.
We provide certification-level documentation that can support your CRA inspections or insurance discounts.
