In their own words · from the filing

Standard payment terms

The company aims to pay in line with the terms agreed with suppliers. Where no agreement exists, the company will pay suppliers 30 days after the invoice date, provided the supplier sends an accurate invoice which quotes the correct purchase order or cost centre number.

Dispute resolution

Where non-payment is caused by invoicing inaccuracy due to incorrect pricing/quantities or the quality of goods or services provided, the person responsible for the purchase will dispute the invoice by placing it on hold. Invoices that are subject to a dispute will not be paid until the issue is resolved. Suppliers are informed of held items. Once resolved, payment will be made in accordance with the terms of the contract, unless the invoice is overdue where it will be paid in the next available payment run.

Other information

The company raises payment instructions in line with the agreed payment terms, which make no allowance for fund transmission times. The funds are available to suppliers between 1 and 5 days after the payment terms date depending upon the method of transmission.

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).
