In their own words · from the filing
Standard payment terms
Nigel Frank International Limited and the wider Frank Recruitment Group are committed to paying all suppliers promptly and on time. The standard terms for suppliers involved in the provision of contract services are 14 days from the submission of an invoice. The standard term for suppliers providing all other services is to pay before the end of the month following the month in which a valid invoice is received. The company does not, as standard, look to negotiate payment terms longer than the standard terms.
Dispute resolution
Disputes relating to supplier invoices are rare but the business' resolution process is robust and centres on early engagement with the supplier followed by an internal escalation process which ensures that disputes are resolved quickly by the relevant department.

What a 17-day cycle ties up
Illustrative. On a hypothetical £12k/month account, at a 17-day vs a 14-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).
