Dispute resolution process

All of our contracts contain an amicable dispute resolution process whereby any dispute which cannot be resolved to the satisfaction of both parties can be elevated to our dedicated team for review. The team are used to working with suppliers to resolve issues at an early stage, the key being to reach an early conclusion to the mutual satisfaction of the parties.

We are not a litigious organisation and have comparatively few adjudications, arbitrations and court proceedings. Our success is based upon forming longer term relationships with our supply chain.
