BOP Program Statement 2011.09 § 6
REQUIREMENTS OF QC REVIEWS. Each agency's QC program is
required to assess the performance of payment systems and provide
a reliable way to estimate payment performance (5 CFR 1315).
The QC program must meet the following requirements:
a. It must be a systematic performance measurement system,
which provides management information about problems and assists
in targeting corrective action.
— The data must be accurate and used to meet the annual
prompt payment reporting requirements.
b. Data must be gathered as frequently as needed by management
to identify and correct errors.
c. Information must be collected through a process at least as
thorough as the original payment process.
— Original documents must be used, except as specified in
Section 12, and all calculations must be repeated.

d. A statistically valid sampling will be used for data
gathering when the number of payments is too numerous to permit a
total review without unduly burdening agency resources.
e. Data must be collected by individuals independent of the
payment process.
— Supervisory reviews are not QC Reviews.
f. The analysis of QC data will result in corrective action.
