How It Works
Good Faith Receiving (GFR)

Whether your goal is improving stock accuracy, increasing efficiency, or ensuring GSCOP (Groceries Supply Code of Practice) compliance, RGIS supports your Good Faith Receiving (GFR) objectives.

GFR is a commercial agreement between supplier and customer that assumes each delivery is 100% accurate. This speeds up the movement of goods through the receiving distribution centre. To confirm stock accuracy, sample audits are conducted. Results are extrapolated across all deliveries over a set period to measure overall stock accuracy. This measure helps recover stock discrepancies between invoiced and received goods. RGIS ensures independent verification through trained auditors, robust reporting tools, and key insights via the GFR Dashboard.

Audit Concept

GFR auditing verifies invoiced goods without a full count of all deliveries. It relies on representative sample audits for each supplier.

Sample Selection

A small sample (usually about 5%) represents the broader invoiced quantity. All samples are carefully planned to ensure a wide range of goods is checked.

Assumed Accuracy

GFR operates on the assumption that the majority of supplier deliveries are fully accurate.

Confidence Boost

Sample audits reliably reflect delivery performance, giving retailers greater confidence in accuracy results.

GFR Efficiency Focus

Efficiency and confidence boosts supplier performance and removes the need for full delivery checks.

Precision Assurance

Meticulous sample checks ensure precision, offering assurance in the received goods.

Reduced Work Load

Good Faith Receiving avoids physically counting every item, reducing the overall workload.

Reliable Verification

GFR provides a reliable verification method, balancing accuracy with operational efficiency.
