In their own words · from the filing
Standard payment terms
There are no standard payment terms as each contractual payment period is derived through agreement between BHSF and the supplier. Generally BHSF complies with the preferred terms of its supplier. There is no distinction in terms between different qualifying contracts. Terms depend on the supplier not the product or service that is being supplied. Whilst there are no standard terms the most common contractual period is 30 days.
Dispute resolution
There have been no disputes relating to payments during this reporting period and disputes are rare. If there are any queries then these are initially addressed informally by members of the finance department and the supplier. Should that not resolve the query then the matter will be escalated to the Chief Finance Officer or other relevant director.

How this is compiled. Built from official records only: Companies House and the gov.uk payment-practices service. The payment figures are self-reported — companies over the size threshold must file them by law and the board signs them off. No credit-agency data. The numbers are theirs; the plain-English read is ours. This is information compiled from public records under the Open Government Licence v3.0 — not a credit rating and not advice.
The 31-day comparison figure is the median across 6,104 companies with a current statutory report — every sector pooled, not an average of sector medians (how the figure is built).
