AABB Publishes Standalone Quality System Essentials

October 14, 2026

AABB has published the Quality System Essentials as a standalone volume. The 10 QSEs have appeared in every set of AABB standards since 2023; the 40-page edition collects them in a single reference.

Each QSE has its own chapter covering key concepts, key terms, examples of objective evidence, standards and relevant records to maintain. The volume also includes a master list of records to retain, along with a glossary of the terms used in the text.

The QSEs apply to the disciplines for which AABB sets voluntary standards and can be applied to any field implementing a quality system. Facilities anywhere in the world can follow the requirements.

AABB Quality System Essentials is available in both digital and print editions.
