We make product quality and safety a priority
The importance we place on product quality and safety is embedded in our culture.
This is why patients and consumers trust our products. It is also why industry authorities and medical experts respect our company.
Our manufacturing facilities adhere to Current Good Manufacturing Practices (CGMP) standards and follow stringent quality control procedures. AbbVie suppliers are subject to these standards, too, and must maintain a Quality Management System.
Report any unfavorable, unexpected or undesirable result associated with AbbVie product use, whether or not attributable to an AbbVie product, within one business day after learning of the adverse event. Call 800.633.9110 or follow local procedures for your group or affiliate so that all appropriate individuals and government regulators are informed. Your local affiliate or department may have specific procedures for reporting safety concerns.
Making a difference
A representative of a potential AbbVie supplier approaches me to request a commitment to a contract. The supplier is widely respected, and I feel the association would help improve AbbVie’s performance. The representative says that our review/due diligence process isn’t necessary because of his company’s established reputation. I tell the representative that he cannot sidestep our policies and procedures and insist that these be followed so we can maintain our high standards.
