The Industry Is Changing

Red Wolf Risk helps operators implement the systems, documentation, controls, and operational intelligence necessary to thrive in the next phase of the industry.

Our services combine:

• Federal compliance preparation
• GMP readiness
• Quality management systems
• Operational risk management
• Audit readiness
• Claims preparedness
• Safety and compliance programs
• Ongoing operational governance

That's what Red Wolf Risk was built to solve.

Founded by Alex Hearding after 15 years building and operating licensed cannabis facilities, Red Wolf exists because the industry needed someone who could speak three languages fluently: operations, insurance, and regulation.

OPS is the result of that intersection , a program that makes compliance enforceable, makes insurance negotiable, and makes risk measurable.

Core Values:

• Resourcefulness — Practical solutions to complex problems
• Integrity — Do what's right, not what's easy
• Stewardship — Long-term safety and sustainable value
• Kindness — Partnership built on respect

Resinate (Massachusetts)"Red Wolf's OPS program saved us $167,000 in insurance premiums in one year while simultaneously strengthening our GMP compliance and audit readiness. The program paid for itself in the first quarter."
