In their own words · from the filing

Standard payment terms

S&G standard terms (with non-client contracts (as opposed to disbursement suppliers) 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. The terms vary between immediate and 90 days. Immediate terms have been taken to mean next days for these calculations.

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?
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 6,185 companies with a current statutory report — every sector pooled, not an average of sector medians (how the figure is built).
