In regard to accord

The dimensions of item 8 in the BOM are not in accord with the corresponding dimensions shown in the drawing.One is 1200*100*6, the other 1200*1000*6.

Can I use "in accord" to express the same meaning, as follow :

The dimensions of item 8 in both the drawing and BOM are not in accord. One is 1200*100*6, the other 1200*1000*6.

If there is any mistake in the sentences above, please point out to me, thanks in advance. By the way, is there any other way to put it better?
