Professional Services Payment Performance Dips Slightly: 2025 Average Score Declines to 74.5/100

The Comparison

Here's a breakdown of payment practices in professional services:

• 2024: 163 companies surveyed yielded an average payment performance score of 74.9 out of 100.
• 2025: A smaller sample of 140 companies reported a slightly lower average payment performance score of 74.5 out of 100.

What This Means

While the data reveals a drop in payment performance scores between 2024 and 2025, the decrease of 0.4 points suggests a relatively stable payment environment within the professional services sector. The reduced sample size of companies surveyed in 2025, however, might partly account for this marginal shift in payment practices.
