Dispute resolution process

If invoices are disputed they are logged by our Shared Service Team and progressed at the site between the person who ordered the goods and the procurement team to check any contractual implications. We occasionally have goods that are delivered out of the required specification and we would expect a credit note from our suppliers should that occur. Sometimes it is a case of negotiating a pragmatic resolution
