In their own words · from the filing

Standard payment terms

Standard payment terms are agreed with suppliers when they are set up on our systems before the first contract is entered into. A number of historic suppliers remain on their original terms and shorter terms are offered to consultants and sole traders, but the most commonly used payment terms for new suppliers are 60 days.

Dispute resolution

We have good relationships with our suppliers and rarely have disputes relating to payments. Any queries or disputes are raised with the accounts payable team at [email protected] who then forward the query or dispute to the designated Global Purchasing contact or other relationship contact within the business, to ensure that any dispute is resolved satisfactorily for both parties. Currently, it is difficult for the business to assess the percentage of payments that were in dispute. However, the company is in the process of implementing new automation software that will be able to address this.

Other information

The company has experienced a delay in payments as it transitions to automated accounts payable software, which is expected to be completed in Q3 / Q4 2026.

Working-capital effect

What a 70-day cycle ties up

Illustrative. On a hypothetical £12k/month account, at a 70-day vs a 14-day payment cycle.

≈ £27,500

of invoicing outstanding at any one time on a 70-day cycle — about £22,100 more than the same account would carry at 14-day terms.

Late Payment Act. The Late Payment of Commercial Debts Act 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.

Are they getting slower or faster?

Their reported average has moved about 34 days slower over the window (36 → 70 days).

How UK payment reporting works

What is a Payment Practices Report?

UK companies and LLPs above a size threshold — broadly, two of: turnover over £54m, balance sheet over £27m, or more than 250 employees — must report twice a year, under the Reporting on Payment Practices and Performance Regulations 2017, how quickly they actually pay suppliers: the average time to pay, the share of invoices paid in 30 days or fewer, 31 to 60 days and 61 days or longer, and their standard payment terms. Those thresholds apply to financial years beginning on or after 6 April 2025; for earlier financial years they were £36m and £18m, with the same 250-employee test.

What does "paid outside agreed terms" mean?

The share of invoices paid later than the terms in the supplier contract. If terms are 30 days and an invoice is paid on day 45, it counts as paid outside terms, regardless of the headline average.

How often is this data updated?

Each report covers a six-month period and must be filed within 30 days of that period ending, so a company's record refreshes roughly twice a year. PaidLate re-reads the register as new reports are filed.

Is this official government data?

The underlying payment figures come from the company's own statutory filings on the gov.uk payment-practices service; company-status data comes from Companies House. PaidLate calculates trends, comparisons and summaries from those records. It does not use surveys or credit-agency scores.

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 6,185 companies with a current statutory report — every sector pooled, not an average of sector medians (how the figure is built).
