Dispute resolution process


Dispute resolution is implemented where an agreement cannot be reached and is used to facilitate a peaceful outcome. There are a range of techniques that we deploy such as negotiation, mediation and diplomacy.
We maintain good business relationships by handling disputes in a respectful and positive way in order to keep relationships strong with our suppliers.
The dispute will be handled by the senior manager in the department involved, and would look to be resolved as quickly as possible.
