In their own words · from the filing

Standard payment terms

Our standard payment terms state that payment of supplier invoices for goods and services will be made 60 days from the end of the month in which a correct, undisputed and properly due VAT invoice is received, unless otherwise agreed by a duly authorised representative. However, consideration is also given to our SME suppliers where alternative payment terms, of 30 days from the end of the month in which a correct and undisputed VAT invoice is dated, may be agreed. The business also operates a no purchase order, no pay policy, unless otherwise agreed, in exceptional circumstances, by a duly authorised representative. Invoices received, and which do not include a valid purchase order number, are rejected and returned to the supplier.

Dispute resolution

We recognise the strategic importance of our supply chain partners, and as such are committed to treating them fairly. Our preference is to always address disputes in a transparent and timely manner, always acting in good faith, through open and constructive discussion. If such discussions fail to resolve a dispute, an authorised representative of the supplier and the company shall, within 30 days of a written request from one party to the other, meet in good faith to resolve the dispute. If the dispute remains unresolved either the supplier or the company shall refer it to mediation in accordance with the Centre for Effective Dispute Resolution ("CEDR") Model Mediation Procedure that is in force at the date of the referral.

How UK payment reporting works

What is a Payment Practices Report?
UK companies and LLPs above a size threshold — broadly, two of: turnover over £54m, balance sheet over £27m, or more than 250 employees — must report twice a year, under the Reporting on Payment Practices and Performance Regulations 2017, how quickly they actually pay suppliers: the average time to pay, the share of invoices paid in 30 days or fewer, 31 to 60 days and 61 days or longer, and their standard payment terms. Those thresholds apply to financial years beginning on or after 6 April 2025; for earlier financial years they were £36m and £18m, with the same 250-employee test.
What does "paid outside agreed terms" mean?
The share of invoices paid later than the terms in the supplier contract. If terms are 30 days and an invoice is paid on day 45, it counts as paid outside terms, regardless of the headline average.
How often is this data updated?
Each report covers a six-month period and must be filed within 30 days of that period ending, so a company's record refreshes roughly twice a year. PaidLate re-reads the register as new reports are filed.
Is this official government data?
The underlying payment figures come from the company's own statutory filings on the gov.uk payment-practices service; company-status data comes from Companies House. PaidLate calculates trends, comparisons and summaries from those records. It does not use surveys or credit-agency scores.

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 6,185 companies with a current statutory report — every sector pooled, not an average of sector medians (how the figure is built).
