Any other information about payment terms

As a business we complete two payment runs a month. Any approved supplier invoices are paid on the run closest to the due dates therefore some are paid slightly later than their due date (most likely to be within a few days).

Dispute resolution process

Suppliers email a dedicated mailbox with their invoice queries. Invoices are sent for processing the same day. The Accounts Payable team escalates queries to the budget holder and Finance team. Any disputes are resolved promptly by the Finance team in collaboration with the supplier's point of contact.
