In their own words · from the filing
Standard payment terms
Standard payment terms are from the date of the invoice to payment of invoice. For example on 30 day terms if an invoice is dated 25 November then payment due is 24 December
Dispute resolution
Invoices are matched to pre arranged orders. Any invoices outside tolerance levels are then referred to the purchaser to liaise with the company (supplier) providing the goods or services to resolve their differences

What a 28-day cycle ties up
A worked example, not a finding. On a hypothetical £12k/month account, at a 28-day vs a 7-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 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).
