What they tell their suppliers
In their own words · from the filing
Standard payment terms
Standard payment terms are negotiated with the vendor as part of the contract. Standard Payment Terms are maintained in the IT system. When an invoice is due, this automatically is included in the next payment run and is paid.
Dispute resolution
Vendor receives the contact data (email address, phone number, etc) and can contact Accounts Payable at SAP any time.

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).
