In their own words · from the filing
Standard payment terms
Standard payment terms are negotiated as 40 days from invoice date between the supplier, the business owner and Procurement. Changes to the terms are negotiated by the business owners of the relationship and / or Procurement in partnership with the supplier. Procurement communicates approved payment terms changes to Accounts Payable to be updated in the Accounts Payable system. Disputes related to payment timing are addressed directly with the businesses’ owner and Accounts Payable.
Dispute resolution
If the business identifies a discrepancy between the amount due and the goods or services delivered, the business relationship owner or Accounts Payable will contact the supplier directly to discuss the discrepancy and either agree to pay the invoice as billed or, receive a corrected invoice or, if the invoice was paid, the supplier may be asked to issue a credit memo or a payment refund. Contracts contain contact information for disputes. In addition, suppliers may contact the Accounts Payable department.

What a 17-day cycle ties up
Illustrative. On a hypothetical £12k/month account, at a 17-day vs a 1-day payment cycle.
Late Payment Act. The Late Payment of Commercial Debts Act lets a supplier charge statutory interest and fixed compensation on invoices paid past agreed terms. Work out what a late invoice is worth → Whether it applies depends on your contract — check with an adviser.

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).
