Standard payment terms

The standard payment terms of Clancy Group are 45 days. However, as part of contractual negotiations variations to this may be agreed.

Dispute resolution

The Clancy Group Ltd aims to resolve all invoice queries or disputes in a timely manner and ensure payments are made within agreed terms. All supplier queries should be addressed to [email protected] in the first instance. If the issue cannot be resolved by the accounts payable team, then the matter will be directed to the purchase order owner or Procurement department as appropriate for resolution. Once any queries or disputes have been resolved then the invoice will be settled on the next payment run once it is due for payment. All sub-contractor queries should be addressed to their local commercial team contact.

Other information

The payment method for The Clancy Group Ltd is BACS. Our core ERP system is IFS and we use a three way matching system between purchase order, goods receipting (delivery tickets) and invoice. In order to avoid payment delays, suppliers and sub-contractors are asked to ensure that they have a valid and current purchase order number and quote this on all invoices, credit notes applications for payment and any other documentation relating to the payment process.

What a 26-day cycle ties up

A worked example, not a finding. On a hypothetical £12k/month account, at a 26-day vs a 14-day payment cycle.

≈ £10,000
of invoicing outstanding at any one time on a 26-day cycle — about £4,700 more than the same account would carry at 14-day terms.

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?
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 6,104 companies with a current statutory report — every sector pooled, not an average of sector medians (how the figure is built).
