Dispute resolution process
The dispute process starts with
our Purchase Ledger Clerk and
then will escalate to each
Department Head if items are not
resolved in a timely fashion
(usually 2 weeks).
If these aren't resolved then the
Finance Director steps into the
process and makes sure that
issues are then resolved in a
timely manner.
