Dispute resolution process

WSP has a commitment to managing all disputed invoices in a timely manner. Our key steps in this process are: Disputed invoices are identified and raised by the person responsible for sourcing the supply or service, whom will then liaise with the business stakeholder. The dispute will then be owned and analysed internally by the business stakeholder and raised directly with the supplier. If settlement of the dispute cannot be reached between the business stakeholder and the supplier, escalation to Procurement and or other appropriate departments will be engaged in the process Where a resolution cannot be reached, there are a number of potential dispute resolution methods such as mediation, adjudication, expert determination, litigation and / or arbitration.
