BOP Program Statement 8331.03 § 14
PROCEDURES FOR FACTORIES WITH COUNT RESULTS YIELDING AT
LEAST 95 PERCENT ACCURACY
Factories that have a 95 percent or greater inventory accuracy level are exempt from the control
group procedures listed above. However, the supervising staff member must perform at least
monthly financial information system-generated cycle counts of raw materials, sub-assembly, and
finished goods inventories per Section 9.
The count size for cycle counts should be sufficient to include all inventory items at least once
during the year.
The AW(I&E)/SOI reviews discrepancies and adjustments to the inventory records.
If the accuracy rate drops below 95 percent for two consecutive factory cycle counts, or the annual
inventory of raw materials, sub-assemblies, finished goods, or work in process is less than 95
percent, control groups are established and the procedures in Section 13 are followed.
