Standard payment terms
The standard contract length is based on the standard terms we offer suppliers, under a form of contract. Separately negotiated terms are not standard terms and do not qualify under this heading. In the absence of standard terms then the most popular set of terms is chosen based on the most popular utilised across the supply chain. I.e. it’s based on supplier volume and not invoice volume. Morgan Sindall operates shorter payment terms in certain circumstances, including where we have specific payment commitments on frameworks with key customers e.g. 30 days. This is reflected in our average days to pay, when compared to our standard payment terms

Dispute resolution process
