In their own words · from the filing

Standard payment terms

Progress Rail's Standard payment terms are End of month plus 60 days from receipt of invoice unless alternative payment terms are contractually agreed (i.e. 60 days/end of month). There were no changes to our standard payment terms during the reporting period.

Dispute resolution

Where a vendor needs to query an invoice for payment, they will first need to either: contact the buyer directly or; contact our accounts payable team by phone or by email and this will be investigated as applicable with a view to responding ASAP. Where an invoice is received but not paid within agreed terms, this will be because the invoice is in query/dispute. In this instance the AP team will not post the invoice and will forward the relevant query (i.e. price query/receipting query) to the person responsible for the purchase order or the AP team will reach out to the supplier if further information is required.

How UK payment reporting works

What is a Payment Practices Report?
UK companies and LLPs above a size threshold — broadly, two of: turnover over £54m, balance sheet over £27m, or more than 250 employees — must report twice a year, under the Reporting on Payment Practices and Performance Regulations 2017, how quickly they actually pay suppliers: the average time to pay, the share of invoices paid in 30 days or fewer, 31 to 60 days and 61 days or longer, and their standard payment terms. Those thresholds apply to financial years beginning on or after 6 April 2025; for earlier financial years they were £36m and £18m, with the same 250-employee test.
What does "paid outside agreed terms" mean?
The share of invoices paid later than the terms in the supplier contract. If terms are 30 days and an invoice is paid on day 45, it counts as paid outside terms, regardless of the headline average.
How often is this data updated?
Each report covers a six-month period and must be filed within 30 days of that period ending, so a company's record refreshes roughly twice a year. PaidLate re-reads the register as new reports are filed.
Is this official government data?
The underlying payment figures come from the company's own statutory filings on the gov.uk payment-practices service; company-status data comes from Companies House. PaidLate calculates trends, comparisons and summaries from those records. It does not use surveys or credit-agency scores.

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).
