Dispute resolution process
Invoice dispute and queries are managed by the finance team based in Coventry. Disputes can be escalated up the management chain if subsequently required.
The business operates a no purchase order, no pay policy unless otherwise agreed in exceptional circumstances. Invoices received which do not include a valid purchase order are rejected and returned to the supplier. In instances where invoices are queries, suppliers are notified either via email or telephone and requested to provide any missing/additional information to allow the invoice to be processed accordingly.
