In their own words · from the filing

Standard payment terms

The standard payment terms operated by Esri (UK) Limited are 30 days end of month. If the supplier indicates different terms on their invoice, we adhere wherever possible to these terms.

Dispute resolution

1. Our accounts payable team, or another suitable Esri (UK) employee, notify the supplier of the query, either by phone or email. The communication explains the nature of the query and the actions required to resolve the query. 2. The supplier provides the necessary information/credit note (as appropriate) to enable the query to be resolved. 3. Accounts payable check the information received and process the invoice for payment if the information is correct. If not, the supplier will be asked to escalate the matter. 4. Once the dispute has been resolved, the invoice is paid on the next available payment run. Payment runs are sent fortnightly, at the middle and end of each month.

Other information

We have not changed any supplier payment terms in the period covered by this report and have no plans to do so in the forthcoming period.

Working-capital effect

What a 78-day cycle ties up

Illustrative. On a hypothetical £12k/month account, at a 78-day vs a 30-day payment cycle.

≈ £30,500
of invoicing outstanding at any one time on a 78-day cycle — about £18,900 more than the same account would carry at 30-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.

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).
