Case Study: San Rafael launches cannabis licensing in under 30 days with Camino Technologies

San Rafael Digitizes Cannabis Business Licensing in Three Weeks

The city of San Rafael sought a digital solution to implement its new cannabis business licensing program but was discouraged by the complex and expensive software options available. A paper-based process was also deemed too time-consuming. The program was under high scrutiny, and the economic development team, led by Danielle O’Leary, needed a flexible and efficient system to get it right the first time. They turned to the vendor, Camino, for its solution.

Camino worked with San Rafael to implement its intelligent application system, which enabled easy data intake and could track applications, run analytics, and process payments. The platform was launched in under three weeks, allowing the city to process applications and collect over $100,000 in fees quickly. The Camino solution automated tedious tasks, provided valuable application analytics, and could be updated by the department in minutes to adapt to changing regulations without needing IT support.
