Standard payment terms
Our standard payment terms are 30 days from invoice date but exceptions may arise following disagreement over an invoice or if it is received without sufficient time to be processed. We are committed to pay our suppliers on time within the agreed terms from the outset of any commencement of work. We will not attempt to amend payment terms retrospectively and will provide suppliers with clear and accessible guidance on payment procedures. We will promptly advise suppliers if there is an issue with an invoice and why it cannot be paid within the agreed terms.

Dispute resolution process
The company in its history has had minimal disputes or complaints in respect of its payment process. Initially all disputes or complaints about payments would be administered through the accounts payable team, who would investigate the reasons for non-payment of supplier invoices. If the matter remained unresolved it would be escalated to the relevant operational team within the company which the invoice related and they would then provide the supplier with the explanation as to why the payment was being withheld and the necessary steps required to resolve the matter. It is the company's objective to deal with and resolve any disputes and complaints in a timely manner.
