Dispute resolution process

The main point of contact for disputes is accounts payable at Carlisle Brass. When an invoice is disputed, the supplier will be contacted by either accounts payable for non-stock items or directly by the supply chain member who is assigned to their account for stock items. They will indicate the invoice number and reason for rejection. To resolve a dispute, the supplier is required to provide any missing information or a corrected invoice. Carlisle Brass follow a no PO no pay policy. The PO number is logged on a spreadsheet and should be quoted on every invoice.
