TORONTO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–GrowerIQ, a seed-to-sale technology and cannabis cultivation platform provider, is excited to announce a partnership with High North Labs. This partnership will improve the testing process for clients, with seamless, system-to-system integration of lab results transmitted automatically to GrowerIQ’s digital batch record.

The tie-up also includes benefits exclusively for GrowerIQ clients, including discounted testing rates, better payment terms, and more. High North customers that want to simplify their testing process, or upgrade their own traceability systems to GrowerIQ will receive preferential rates.

Andrew Wilson, GrowerIQ’s Chief Operating Officer, commented on the impact that direct system integration will have on GrowerIQ client workflows, “Until now, lab testing across the industry was a very manual process. The lab uploads a PDF of your Certificate of Analysis to their portal, which you must find, download, store, and control somehow. Partnering with a leading lab like High North is a way for us to continue streamlining workflows for our clients – your results are uploaded directly to GrowerIQ, cutting out that manual effort.”

John Slaughter, High North’s Chief Executive Officer, highlighted the impact on data, “Incorporating our detailed lab test results into the broader GrowerIQ traceability chain allows customers to start exploring their data. Licensed producers can analyze how cultivation activities and environmental conditions impact plant characteristics, represented by sample test results. GrowerIQ’s data insights team can analyze which activities correlate to which terpene expression or THC/CBD profile. This type of analysis is how we push the industry forward.”
