In their own words · from the filing
Standard payment terms
The company’s standard terms require that the company ensures payments are made to the supplier in accordance with the payment period agreed with its suppliers. The only reason a payment may fail to meet the payment terms is if the invoice is under dispute or another arrangement has been made.
Dispute resolution
All invoices are addressed to the company’s Head office address and approved by the relevant individual. Complaints regarding payments usually sit with the accounts team who are responsible for paying suppliers. If another department have advised not to pay the invoice due to disputes with the goods/services, the accounts team are made fully aware of the reason so they can follow up to ensure it is resolved in a timely manner. This ensures there is only one point of contact for the suppliers to prevent confusion and further delay. Invoices are not paid until the dispute is resolved, either with a credit note or approval of original invoice by individual responsible to authorise.
Other information
The company’s standard payment period is 30 days for most suppliers, with the exception of it’s main dental supplier which has a 90 day term agreed. This is the maximum payment period offered by the company. Rent and service charges paid on demand. Ad hoc invoices are paid on a next day basis if required, otherwise the standard 30 day term is applied.

What a 42-day cycle ties up
A worked example, not a finding. On a hypothetical £12k/month account, at a 42-day vs a 30-day payment cycle.
Late Payment Act. The Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act 1998 lets a supplier charge statutory interest and fixed compensation on invoices paid past agreed terms. Work out what a late invoice is worth → Whether it applies depends on your contract — check with an adviser.

How often is this data updated?
Is this official government data?
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).
