Dispute resolution process

Complaints or concerns on non-payment are initially received and dealt with by the company's Finance department. Where possible simple, straight forward issues, for example administrative errors, will be resolved without the need for further escalation. Disputes involving more complex issues such as non-performance, pricing discrepancies or breach of contractual terms will be referred to the company's Commercial or Operations teams to liaise with the supplier and resolve. If required, disputes will be escalated to the company's Leadership team and/or Legal department to negotiate and resolve the issues arising.
