The read · computed from their figures

In their own words · from the filing
Standard payment terms
Commercial Acceptances Limited agrees appropriate terms of payment with suppliers for each transaction or series of transactions and abides by those terms based on the timely submission of valid invoices. In the absence of agreed terms with a supplier, the Group's policy is to pay within 60 days of receipt of a valid invoice. The most frequently agreed term with suppliers is 30 days from receipt of a valid invoice.
Dispute resolution
Commercial Acceptances Limited and the supplier will first attempt to resolve any dispute by referring it for formal discussion between Commercial Acceptances Limited's authorised representative and the supplier (both acting reasonably and in good faith). If Commercial Acceptances Limited's authorised representative and the supplier are for any reason unable to resolve the dispute within 14 days of the date of its referral to them, the dispute may be referred to court by either Commercial Acceptances Limited or the supplier.

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).
