BCI Chain of Custody (CoC) Standard v1.0 Monitoring and Assessment Process

Objectivos

The BCI Chain of Custody (CoC) Standard is the key framework that connects BCI supply (which is produced in accordance with the BCI Principles and Criteria) with demand. The CoC Standard sets out auditable requirements for organizations in the supply chain that are buying or selling physical BCI Cotton, or cotton-containing products as BCI Mass Balance orders. Manufacturers, suppliers, retailers, and brands can claim the use of physical BCI Cotton in their products, or support BCI field-level programs through the sourcing of Mass Balance orders, when they adhere to the requirements of the BCI CoC Standard and the BCI Claims Framework.

Âmbito de aplicação

At each stage of the supply chain, the organization shall implement the applicable CoC supply chain model(s) at site level. The CoC requirements and data will be maintained at each site owned by the organization, for all applicable CoC models, including Mass Balance.
