Thanks for all the great input everyone. Here is some more background data,

The folder permissions are,
Code:
$ ls -ld /bp_data/frm/pr/ParamFiles/PFMBT
drwxrwsr-x    2 pcadmin  utl            4096 Mar 06 03:19 /bp_data/frm/pr/ParamFiles/PFMBT

And you are correct in guessing it is a NFS mount.
$ df -g /bp_data/frm/pr/ParamFiles/PFMBT
Code:
Filesystem    GB blocks      Free %Used    Iused %Iused Mounted on
np00002:/vol/BP_CACHE_PR/PR_DATA    896.25    438.50   52%    94591     1% /bp_data

/bp_data:
        dev             = "/vol/BP_CACHE_PR/PR_DATA"
        vfs             = nfs
        nodename        = np00002
        mount           = true
        options         = rw,bg,hard,intr,rsize=32768,wsize=32768
        account         = false

The OS level is 6.1
$ uname -a
AIX ####### 1 6 00F61FD34C00

The Id pcadmin has 17 groups if you count the primary group. 1+16, I will remove the staff group and see if the issue resolves.

nfsmount.conf

NFSMOUNT.CONF(5)						File Formats Manual						  NFSMOUNT.CONF(5)

NAME

       nfsmount.conf - Configuration file for NFS mounts

SYNOPSIS

       Configuration file for NFS mounts that allows options to be set globally, per server or per mount point.

DESCRIPTION

       The  configuration  file  is  made  up  of multiple sections followed by variables associated with that section.  A section is defined by a
       string enclosed by [ and ] branches.  Variables are assignment statements that assign values to particular variables using the =  operator,
       as in Proto=Tcp.  Sections are broken up into three basic categories: Global options, Server options and Mount Point options.

       [ NFSMount_Global_Options ] - This statically named section defines all of the global mount options that can be applied to every NFS mount.

       [  Server  "Server_Name"  ]  -  This  section  defines  all the mount options that should be used on mounts to a particular NFS server. The
	      "Server_Name" strings needs to be surrounded by '"' and be an exact match of the server name used in the mount command.

       [ MountPoint "Mount_Point" ] - This section defines all the  mount  options  that  should  be  used  on	a  particular  mount  point.   The
	      "Mount_Point" string needs to be surrounded by '"' and be an exact match of the mount point used in the mount command.

EXAMPLES

       These are some example lines of how sections and variables are defined in the configuration file.

       [ NFSMount_Global_Options ]
	   Proto=Tcp

	      The TCP protocol will be used on every NFS mount.

       [ Server "nfsserver.foo.com" ]
	   rsize=32k
	   wsize=32k

	      A 33k (32768 bytes) block size will be used as the read and write size on all mounts to the 'nfsserver.foo.com' server.

	[ MountPoint "/export/home" ]
	   Background=True

	      All mounts to the '/export/home' export will be performed in the background (i.e. done asynchronously).
