What they tell their suppliers
In their own words · from the filing
Standard payment terms
Provided that the invoice is submitted accurately and contains the necessary information required under the contract and except where the parties have agreed to other payment terms, the standard Contractual terms for goods and services is End of Month plus 60 days (Max30+60=Max90). Suppliers can opt for End of Month plus 30 days in return for deduction of 2.5% settlement discount.
Dispute resolution
The main point of contact for disputes is the Accounts Payable team at the Head Office in Wetherby, UK. Every invoice is checked against the corresponding goods receipt note (stock) or purchase order (expense). If a discrepancy exists, the manager responsible at the purchasing branch/department will be asked to respond within 7 days to either approve the variance, or request a dispute be raised. If a dispute is requested, the Accounts Payable team will notify their contact at the supplier. Communication will continue until the dispute is resolved.

What a 46-day cycle ties up
A worked example, not a finding. On a hypothetical £12k/month account, at a 46-day vs a 30-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.

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).
