Company Review

Trend Analysis

STEWARDSHIP SERVICES demonstrates a consistent trend of very prompt payments, with an average payment time of just 15 days and 94% of invoices settled within 30 days. This indicates a strong and reliable payment speed trajectory for suppliers. The low 7% late payment rate further reinforces highly predictable and favorable payment habits.

Volatility Analysis

Payment volatility for STEWARDSHIP SERVICES is exceptionally low, with only 4% of invoices falling into the 31-60 day range and 2% exceeding 60 days. This minimal deviation beyond the initial 30 days suggests a high degree of payment predictability and reliability. Suppliers can expect consistent adherence to payment terms with very little unexpected delay.

Summary Analysis

STEWARDSHIP SERVICES is assessed as a highly reliable and attractive partner for suppliers due to their excellent payment discipline. Key decision factors include their average 15-day payment time and 94% settlement within 30 days, indicating low payment risk. Minimal specific risk mitigation strategies are required, though routine monitoring of the small percentage of extended payments is always a sound practice.
