ISO 2859-3:2005规定了按属性进行验收检查的通用跳批抽样程序。这些程序的目的是提供一种方法，以减少供应商提交的高质量产品的检查工作，该供应商具有令人满意的质量保证体系和有效的质量控制。通过以规定的概率随机确定提交检验的批次是否会在未经检验的情况下被接受，从而减少检验工作量。本程序将ISO 2859-1中已经应用的随机选择样本项目的原则扩展到随机选择批次。 ISO 2859-3:2005中规定的跳批抽样程序适用于但不限于成品或子组件、部件和原材料以及在产品的检验。

ISO 2859-3:2005 specifies generic skip-lot sampling procedures for acceptance inspection by attributes. The purpose of these procedures is to provide a way of reducing the inspection effort on products of high quality submitted by a supplier who has a satisfactory quality assurance system and effective quality controls. The reduction in inspection effort is achieved by determining at random, with a specified probability, whether a lot presented for inspection will be accepted without inspection. This procedure extends the principle of the random selection of sample items already applied in ISO 2859-1 to the random selection of lots. The skip-lot sampling procedures specified in ISO 2859-3:2005 are applicable to, but not limited to, inspection of end items, such as complete products or sub-assemblies, components and raw materials, and materials in process.
