In their own words · from the filing
Standard payment terms
The Company’s standard payment terms are 60 days from date of valid invoice. It is the Group’s policy to agree appropriate payment terms for each transaction or series of transactions, and to abide by those terms on the submission of a valid invoice. The Company regularly agrees variations to the standard terms with individual suppliers depending on the nature of the goods/services and other circumstances.
Dispute resolution
The Company is committed to dealing with suppliers in a fair, consistent and transparent manner. We seek to resolve any invoice queries as quickly as possible between the Accounts Payable team and the relevant supplier. If a dispute cannot be resolved it is escalated to the relevant Head of Department and Procurement.

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).
