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?
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).
