" Factories with a score of “Needs Improvement” receive a Corrective Action Plan (“CAP”) and are expected to show proof of remediation within 180 days. Factories that receive an Unsatisfactory rating are those that have more serious infractions of the Vendor Code of Conduct. These factories also receive a CAP and are expected to undergo a reaudit within 180 days. If a factory receives a certain amount of successive Unsatisfactory ratings there could be more serious consequences, up to and possibly including notification to the vendor that this factory may no longer be used in the production of goods manufactured for TJX."
