In their own words · from the filing

Standard payment terms

MDU Investments adopts its suppliers’ payment terms where explicitly stated on their invoices. New suppliers are set up in the accounting system by the finance team, and the supplier payment terms are included on the supplier record. All invoices registered against a given supplier will automatically have the payment terms on that supplier’s record applied to them. Where no payment terms have been explicitly communicated by the supplier, the new supplier records will be set to ‘pay immediately’. In practice this means that the invoice will be paid, once approved, on the next weekly payment run.

Dispute resolution

With respect to contracts with suppliers, the general position is that the appropriate department managers for each supplier first attempt to resolve the dispute (the MDU point of contact varies from contract to contract). The contact would aim to deal with the dispute promptly, and in accordance with the terms of the contract. Additionally, suppliers can contact MDU’s accounts team: [email protected]

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).
