In their own words · from the filing
Standard payment terms
We usually work to our suppliers' payment terms. In absence of formal terms we will apply 30 days.
Dispute resolution
In the event of a dispute, the supplier would contact our AP department or their lead contact in our business. We would determine if a late payment was a result of administrative error, or dispute over the services. Where the late payment was administrative, we would request immediate payment from the AP team. Where there was a clear dispute over performance of the contract, we would agree a remediation/correction plan with our supplier. In the unlikely event that no agreement is reached with the supplier we would involve our internal and external legal consultants over any expected litigation action.

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).
