Dispute Resolution Process

Where any supplier has any disputes or concerns regarding our payment processes, contact can be made with either the person responsible for the contract within Carr’s Group plc or our Accounts Department. Efforts will be made in the first instance (typically within 5 working days) to seek resolution in a timely and collaborative manner and with a view to maintaining a good working relationship. In the event that resolution cannot be achieved, the matter will be escalated to management or above (typically with a view to achieving resolution within a further 10 business days). Efforts at resolution may involve meeting to discuss issues. Where a dispute resolution process is prescribed by contract, efforts will be made to follow that process with a view to achieving resolution.
