Firms handling controlled drug substances are regulated under 21 CFR Parts 1300-1321 and must comply with all associated DEA regulations.  Our experts include former DEA Diversion Investigators. We are available to visit your site and help with the activities listed below. We also provide remote consulting and provide training both on-site at companies and at off-site seminars.  While on-site our experts will tour your facility and make recommendations on material flow, storage, security, facility design, and personnel, and will meet with DEA team members to answer questions and provide advice on areas of concern.  Our experts can help you with creating procedures that meet the needs of your particular organization.  Our experts are available to visit if there is concern about theft or diversion and can work with you and your local field division, when needed.  If requested, on-site visits can include training for employees.
