When the React library was introduced into the community some years back, it was accepted and soon gained lots of popularity as the choice for building out user interfaces in a composable way. The major idea was that each UI interface can be split into multiple different small components and at the end of the day, these components can be combined or composed to form the whole larger UI as intended.
As a background to what we are trying to present, if we were building multiple UI components for example, we indeed have a component tree which includes the parent component, which becomes the source of truth for our data, and due to the interrelation dependence on the parent components and those underneath it known as the children or descendant descendant descendant descendant descendant component to share data, it comes a point where this becomes an issue.

As we stated earlier, for small to medium apps, sharing data across many different components could be easy, since all we need to do is pass this data or props across or down from the parent to every child that needs it. Now this is fine. What if we have a hugely nested or a large component tree and we intend to pass the data or prop down this tree?
React context, a core React API provides an easier interface for developers to share data or pass props down multiple levels deep in our React applications. From the React docs, with react context, we can easily pass data down to the very component that needs it at any level in the component tree, without having to explicitly pass this data down each component level in the tree. This is all there is to React context.
To drive this definition further for more clarity, say you have a particular theme color set at the parent component level of the app, and you only intend to pass it down to the thirtieth component down the tree, without having to pass it down every level until you get to that thirtieth level, but just pass it down to only the thirtiet
By replacing error-prone paper batch records with Elevated Signals' Electronic Batch Records, Heritage Cannabis reduced QA admin work by 50 percent, boosted right-first-time metrics from 51 percent to over 80 percent, and cut filing time by 90 percent. The shift also unlocked access to real-time production data across extraction, packaging, and fulfillment operations.
“Before Elevated Signals, our QA team was buried in paperwork, chasing missing info, walking records between departments, and spending hours filing,” said Katrina Andersen,Quality Assurance Associate at Heritage Cannabis. “Now, everything is captured correctly the first time, and batch reviews happen instantly, whether I’m onsite or not.”
Kat added, “We’re not just saving time. We’ve changed how we operate. It is now much easier for QA to prompt corrections needed on digital records, we’re driving improvements, tracking key metrics, and shaping production decisions.”
What began as a fix for recordkeeping quickly became a driver of operational intelligence. The digital transformation will enable Heritage Cannabis to use custom dashboards to monitor efficiency, track KPIs, and identify bottlenecks. Elevated Signals will help Heritage Cannabis turn raw batch data into insights that streamline workflows, improve labour allocation, and reduce cycle times.
“Regulated manufacturers deserve tools that don’t just check compliance boxes, but actually make their businesses better,” said Amar Singh, CEO of Elevated Signals. “Heritage Cannabis’ results show what’s possible when software is built with operators and performance in mind.”
With Elevated Signals, Heritage Cannabis eliminated missing data, reduced errors with auto-calculations, and streamlined batch reviews using remote access, laying the foundation for scalable, audit-ready operations.
Elevated Signals helps cannabis producers move faster, reduce risk, and scale smarter. Whether managing extraction, cultivation, or packaging, its GMP-ready platform brings inventory, compliance, and production into one system built for the realities of regulated manufacturing.
