In their own words · from the filing
Standard payment terms
Our standard terms are 30 days from the receipt of a valid invoice. On receipt of a valid invoice these invoices are included in a weekly payment run as they fall due.
Dispute resolution
All disputes at invoice level are the responsibility of the PO Raiser as the goods/service originated with them. They liaise directly with the Supplier to resolve. Supplier will be notified of reason for dispute resulting in non-payment and Accounts Payable will liaise with them to resolve dispute.

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