Dispute resolution process

In the majority of cases, Accounts Payable contact the supplier (or vice versa). Ultra will involve the Purchasing Manager, Cost Centre Manager or Project teams if relevant. If it cannot be resolved at this level then it is escalated to the Financial Controller, then escalated to the Finance Director. Ultra keeps the Supplier informed throughout the process. Once the query is resolved, is it passed for approval to the appropriate department to process and pay the invoice.
