Dispute resolution process

Any complaint or dispute will initially be referred back to the person or manager of the department that raised the purchase order or entered into the contract. This will be investigated with the item under dispute being compared against the terms and conditions of any contract to establish if these have been breached. A resolution is expected to be agreed on between parties within 14 days, during this time the invoice or invoices in question will be put on hold and will not be included in any payment run made during this period. If resolution is not possible within 14 days it will be escalated to senior management for their involvement.
