This information is as reported by the business, and responses are in their own words.
Payment Terms
Standard payment terms
30 Days - this could vary in relation to the supplier or service provided. This is managed and controlled by relevant stakeholders responsible for the supplier relationship. Our conditions of awards state all claims invoiced will be paid within 30 days of receipt subject to the required verifications and authorisation. Award invoices must go through a three stage process. 1. Finance receive and log the invoice 2. The invoice is sent to the operations team for verification and authorisation. The authorisation is subject to the scrutiny below 3. Once the invoice is authorised it is returned to finance for payment on the next scheduled month end payment run. Any claims received must contain sufficient detail to enable us to verify the costs incurred against the financial breakdown provided with the associated award letter. Unfortunately a number of invoices are received which either lack sufficient information or with costs that have not been approved. Therefore to meet audit requirements we must request additional information which delays authorisation and payment of invoices.
