What they tell their suppliers
In their own words · from the filing
Standard payment terms
Amada UK operates it's main month end payment run on the 10th of each month (or next working day). This gives payment terms of 40 days end of month.
Dispute resolution
Where a supplier has a query or complaint regarding payment, Amada UK aims to achieve a resolution quickly. Standard practice within Amada UK is that the approving department will contact a supplier regarding any query Amada UK has in relation to their invoice. The purpose of this is to ensure where possible, there is a successful and timely resolution, and that payment is made within Amada UK's standard payment period (noted above).

What a 50-day cycle ties up
Illustrative. On a hypothetical £12k/month account, at a 50-day vs a 40-day payment cycle.
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.

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