Dispute Resolution Process

Ian Williams actively seeks to resolve disputes by discussing any invoice queries directly with the supplier. A formal request for a credit note is issued if this is required. Our procurement team hold regular meetings with our suppliers to prevent any invoice/price discrepancies. All the prices are agreed and fixed in advance with the supplier and uploaded to our systems. The business also operates a no purchase order, no pay policy. Invoices received which do not quote a valid purchase order number are rejected and returned to the supplier.
