Dispute resolution process
Our process for resolving disputes around payment will begin with an investigation of why a payment has not been made. If it is due to a process error within the group or lack of correct payee information it will be rectified and payment made as soon as possible. Resolution of all other disputes will start with the business owner for the expenditure – who will hold discussions with the vendor in order to work through any disagreement. If an agreement cannot be reached, then the dispute will be escalated through the Group to a member of senior management who are expected to reach a mutually acceptable resolution. If this does not work then the dispute will ultimately be escalated to the Group Finance Director for resolution.
