Dispute resolution process
All invoices are approved by the employee who raised the associated purchase order (“orderer”). Where there is a dispute on the invoice, this is raised by the orderer with the supplier. This is done electronically where the order was raised on our e-procurement system and by phone/email otherwise. Any disputes that cannot be resolved between the orderer and the supplier are escalated to the central Procurement team who will investigate and manage until resolved.
