Dispute resolution
Disputes are directed to the Accounts payables shared service centre. The shared service centre will assign to the UK Focal point who will direct the dispute to the appropriate person in the business, the requisitioner or the procurement manager. If the matter cannot be resolved further escalation can be made to the Procurement Director. Where an invoice is subject to a dispute or query, the full invoice will be held in dispute until an agreement is reached between both parties. A credit note must be raised by the supplier immediately upon a dispute being upheld. Payment of the invoice will be made once the credit note has been received and validated.

How UK payment reporting works
What is a Payment Practices Report?
What does "paid outside agreed terms" mean?
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).
