In their own words · from the filing
Standard payment terms
Our most commonly used standard payment terms are 60 days net end of month. Accordingly, our shortest standard payment period can be 60 days and our longest standard payment period can be 90 days.
Dispute resolution
We endeavour to resolve all disputes in a fair and timely manner. Disputes are resolved by discussion and agreement with a supplier and are typically managed by the relevant divisional accounts payable department.
Other information
Of the invoices due in the reporting period but not paid within agreed terms, an element of these are due to the fact that we have some invoices set to immediate payment terms which will always, in effect, be paid late not least due to the nature of periodic payment runs.

What a 58-day cycle ties up
Illustrative. On a hypothetical £12k/month account, at a 58-day vs a 30-day payment cycle.
Late Payment Act. The Late Payment of Commercial Debts Act 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?
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).
