Dispute resolution
Invoices are registered to Managers who order goods with purchase orders and then authorise them for payment. Any dispute would be resolved by the accounts department liaising with the supplier and our management. Suppliers must submit monthly statements which allows us to check we have all invoices. Any invoices not authorised by the managers are placed on hold until the supplier can submit further documents, i.e. order note etc - if the issue is down to quality of work this will be discussed by the Manager who has requested the work & the supplier, if required this will be escalated to senior management in the Company to resolve.
Other information
A significant proportion (by value) of our payments are manufacturer led and paid by direct debit and thus are by definition are paid at agreed terms. Purchases of used vehicles and part exchange vehicles are generally paid on a cleared funds policy.

What a 34-day cycle ties up
A worked example, not a finding. On a hypothetical £12k/month account, at a 34-day vs a 1-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 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).
