What they tell their suppliers
In their own words · from the filing
Standard payment terms
Suppliers must submit their invoices quoting a valid purchase order to ensure the invoice can be processed and made available for payment. Invoices must not be submitted prior to the goods/service being delivered. Equans’ standard payment terms are 60 days, depending on the size of the supplier. Where they have been identified as a company employing 50 employees or less, or operating as part of a public sector contract, they are allocated 30-day payment terms
Dispute resolution
All disputes are managed via our Procure to Pay system with suppliers being notified of a dispute, via e-mail, as soon as the invoice is processed. We aim to resolve all disputes within 10 working days to ensure our supplier can be paid within agreed terms. This is, however, dependent, in part, on timely responses from the supplier to rectify any issues.

What a 43-day cycle ties up
A worked example, not a finding. On a hypothetical £12k/month account, at a 43-day vs a 30-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 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).
