Dispute resolution process

For suppliers: Disputes or complaints should be raised with the individual who authorised the order, if this is not known then queries may be made to Oliver Connell and Son Ltd accounts payable team, who will raise the matter with the responsible individual. If this does not resolve the query, then the matter will be escalated to the director responsible for the relevant department. For Subcontractors: Before payment is processed, the quantity surveyor over-looking the site will notify the supplier with the payment that will be made regarding that month’s work; including justification for any withheld sums. Where the supplier disputes this value, the supplier is asked to provide evidence to the quantity surveyor to support their claims that the value of the payment should differ. If no agreement is met, a meeting will be held between Oliver Connell and Son Ltd Commercial director. If an agreement is still not met, the dispute will go to an adjudication tribunal to have an independent body assess the dispute.
