Dispute resolution process
The process detailed below is not an extract of formal policy, but a description of the working procedure. If a school has a dispute about the supply of goods or services ordered then the issue is highlighted to the finance team. The finance team will contact the supplier and advise them that the invoice has been noted as disputed and will not be passed for payment until the issue is resolved. Any disputed invoices of material value are notified to the Trust Director of Finance.
