In their own words · from the filing
Standard payment terms
Unless the order stipulates otherwise, the company shall pay the price of the goods at the end of the month following the month of delivery of the seller's invoice for the goods to the company. Therefore, the maximum payment period could be 60 days. The exception to this is for specific billing in relation to the supplies of specific materials and services, which are on terms of 20 days.
Dispute resolution
With regard to disputes, suppliers should refer to the terms of trade and the terms and conditions of the purchase and contact the individual who place the order for the company. If the matter is not able to be resolved, it is then referred to the Purchasing Manager.
Other information
Payments to suppliers under qualifying contracts are made once per week, clearing with that supplier each Monday or the next business day if that Monday is a bank holiday. Payments made on this day include amounts which are due up to and including that day. For example, if a payment is due on a date which falls on a Tuesday to Sunday, this will not be cleared with the supplier until the following Monday.

What a 36-day cycle ties up
A worked example, not a finding. On a hypothetical £12k/month account, at a 36-day vs a 20-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.

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).
