Welcome to the WBA GNFR Supplier Risk Management Program!

In an effort to strengthen our company's risk management program and ensure we are in compliance with internationally mandated laws and regulations, Walgreens Boots Alliance, Inc. (WBA) has partnered with GRMS | Global Risk Management Solutions and implemented the WBA GNFR (Goods not for Resale) Supplier Risk Management Program (Program) as part of our risk management policies.

The Program is designed to streamline the collection and management of key information regarding the regulatory and compliance status as well as business operations of our suppliers, vendors and service providers.

As part of our supplier qualification, we now require suppliers, vendors and service providers who conduct business with WBA GNFR participate by enrolling and passing the risk assessment process through GRMS. Key points follow:

  • Suppliers, vendors and service providers must enroll in the Program and pass WBA GNFR's risk assessment criteria and provide documentation requested.
  • For all companies, there is a non-refundable annual enrollment fee associated with the Program ($199 USD).
  • If you haven't already, enroll in the auto-renew program which makes renewal quick and easy.
  • THIS IS NOT A PERSONAL CREDIT CHECK - PERSONAL CREDIT CHECKS ARE NOT PERFORMED.
  • You will be able to view the results of the risk assessment and have the opportunity to correct any deficiencies.
  • Failure to participate in this Program may require us to reconsider use of your company's products or services.
  • If you have further questions about the process or want to ensure this is a valid request, please contact the direct Procurement contact you work with at WBA.
