In their own words · from the filing
Standard payment terms
S&G standard terms are 45 day payment terms for new contracts, and we request suppliers to extend payment terms to 45 days on contracts due for renewal, typically at contract anniversary. This is an on-going process, with some suppliers still on legacy terms of up to 90 days, and indeed some paid earlier than 45 days. Whilst 45 days will be the business standard term there will be exceptions where there is commercial benefit to both parties in agreeing alternative terms.
Dispute resolution
If a payment dispute arises it is referred to the budget holder, who would normally manage the supply relationship on a day to day basis. In instances, this responsibility is delegated to a member of the relevant department/team. Payment disputes will be escalated in accordance the contractual terms which vary by supply/service. If necessary, the budget holder will request the advice/support of the Procurement & Commercial team who are experienced in dealing with the commercial management of suppliers and may have been a party to the original agreement.

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 6,104 companies with a current statutory report — every sector pooled, not an average of sector medians (how the figure is built).
