Dispute resolution process

All enquires and complaints can be logged with our dedicated Helpdesk (telephone and email). Issues generally relate to incorrect invoice submissions including incorrect amounts, incorrect/missing PO information and incorrect/missing VAT numbers. The metrics of the Helpdesk are reviewed for quality/effectiveness on a monthly basis. An independently staffed Speak Up Tool provides a forum for suppliers to raise ethical concerns anonymously, though it helps if as much information is provided to resolve the issue/complaint.
