Dispute resolution process
We have a dedicated dispute resolution process to ensure that all supplier invoices are processed as efficiently as possible. We provide suppliers with details of the issues that may affect the processing of their invoices and assistance by providing guidance on what is to be provided on their invoices to ensure payment can be made in a timely manner. We have a dedicated AP helpdesk that offers suppliers support through to query resolution and which can be contacted via a dedicated e-mail address or phone number. All invoices that are in query are logged and if unresolved at the time of supplier payment, details of the reasons for payment delay are communicated to the relevant suppliers.
