Dispute resolution
Any Payment disputes which arise from pricing or quantity differences are dealt with via our internal resolution process to identify the cause of the issue, this would involve the purchasing team and the warehousing team where appropriate, this would then be communicated back to the supplier concerned and resolved accordingly. Any disputes over quality of supply would be dealt with either by the purchasing team or the person responsible for procuring the goods or services directly with the supplier. In the event of disputes which cannot be resolved using or normal resolution process, or if we find ourselves at an impasse with the supplier, these disputes will be escalated through the business to the appropriate level for agreement & resolution between the two parties

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).
