We present our preliminary results of the non-perturbative determination of the valence mass dependent coefficients bA - bP and bm as well as the ratio ZPZm=ZA entering the flavour non-singlet PCAC relation in lattice QCD with Nf = 3 dynamical flavours. We apply the method proposed in the past for quenched approximation and Nf = 2 cases, employing a set of finite-volume ALPHA configurations with Schrödinger functional boundary conditions, generated with O(a) improved Wilson fermions and the tree-level Symanzik-improved gauge action for a range of couplings relevant for simulations at lattice spacings of about 0.09 fm and below.
