Dispute resolution process

There are two types of disputes: 1. Where the site team have not certified the valuation, the site team are tasked to speak with and resolve any differences with the Supply chain/Sub-contractor directly. 2. Where the site team have certified the works and are satisfied the supplier should be paid, there are instances where the Finance team require additional information like insurance details, VAT invoice, Self-billing agreements or CIS verification, in which case the Finance team would request and resolve these issues directly with the supplier.
