Any other information about payment terms

Viridor introduced a new automated invoice process in conjunction with a new group ERP system in November 2021. This was implemented to deliver improved financial governance and improve the timeliness and response to the invoice workflow and payments to suppliers.
A valid invoice reflects:
• registered and approved supplier
• purchase order number
• includes the necessary details of goods/services, date and financial detail and sent either electronically to invoices@viridor.co.uk or by post.
Whilst Viridor is not a member of the prompt payment code, we do adopt the principles of the code including:
1. paying suppliers on time – with average payment days below our standard terms
2. Clear guidance to suppliers – our terms and conditions are included within our purchase orders and on our website.

Dispute resolution process

VIRIDOR TRIDENT PARK LIMITED operates an automated invoice process. We work closely with our suppliers and aim to pay all invoices in a timely and accurate manner. Any disputes that arise are immediately brought to the attention of the dedicated Accounts Payable team and Transactional Services Manager who will engage with all relevant stakeholders to ensure a speedy and
satisfactory resolution. Any dispute arising that is not resolved is escalated through the finance management structure and the Executive Management team member if required.
