Audit conclusion
BMW says Figure 03 will start work on a sequencing application; Figure calls its June material the first demonstration of that workflow at the plant. The sources do not establish a production start, observation window or continuous operating period, and publish no runtime, task volume, fleet size, intervention rate or reliability result.

Claim by claim
Figure 03 sequencing project at BMW Group Plant Spartanburg
BMW confirms the robot, site and intended logistics use case. Its announcement is forward-looking and does not establish that routine production operation had begun.
Sources: bmw-figure03Operator announcement plus manufacturer-described first demonstration
BMW says Figure 03 will now start on the application; Figure later describes a first demonstration. HumanoidUptime therefore does not classify the record as a quantified field deployment.
Sources: bmw-figure03, figure-figure03Pick parts and sort them into a sequencing trolley for onward transport
BMW defines parts moving from bulk containers into a sequencing trolley for onward transport. No attempts, completed sequences, throughput or success criterion is published.
Sources: bmw-figure03Helix 02 whole-body control asserted for the demonstration
Figure describes perception-led corrections and whole-body control, but does not publish an autonomous-time share or separate supervision, teleoperation, resets and recovery.

Figure publishes its project account
Figure calls the material its first demonstration of the workflow at BMW and provides no operating results.

HumanoidUptime evidence review
Project language was separated from field-operation evidence; the record remains a watch pending a production start and measurable results.
