Company Review

Trend Analysis

The average payment time for MITIE SECURITY LIMITED is 48 days, indicating a consistent tendency to pay beyond the standard 30-day term. A significant majority (70%) of payments fall within the 31-60 day window, establishing a clear pattern of settling invoices in the second month rather than promptly. Only 25% of payments are made within 30 days, suggesting a trajectory towards extended payment cycles.

Volatility Analysis

While 70% of payments reliably occur between 31-60 days, the 5% that extend beyond 60 days introduces a degree of unpredictability for a small portion of invoices. The overall late payment rate of 8% represents a moderate risk factor, indicating occasional deviations from expected payment windows. Suppliers should anticipate payments predominantly in the 31-60 day range but also factor in a small chance of significant delays.

Summary Analysis

For suppliers, expect payments from MITIE SECURITY LIMITED to typically clear within 48 days, with 70% settling between 31 and 60 days. Key decision factors should include managing cash flow expectations for payments extending beyond 30 days and accounting for an 8% late payment risk. To mitigate this risk, consider establishing payment terms aligned with their typical 48-day cycle or implementing staggered invoicing for large contracts.

Invoice Payment Practices

This information is as reported by the business, and responses are in their own words.

Payment Terms

Standard payment terms

Our standard payment terms state that payment of supplier invoices for goods and services will be made 60 days from the end of the month in which a correct, undisputed and properly due VAT invoice is received, unless otherwise agreed by a duly authorised representative. However, consideration is also given to our SME suppliers where alternative payment terms, of 30 days from the end of the month in which a correct and undisputed VAT invoice is dated, may be agreed. The business also operates a no purchase order, no pay policy, unless otherwise agreed, in exceptional circumstances, by a duly authorised representative. Invoices received, and which do not include a valid purchase order number, are rejected and returned to the supplier.

Were there any changes to the standard payment terms in the reporting period?

Dispute Resolution Process

We recognise the strategic importance of our supply chain partners, and as such are committed to treating them fairly. Our preference is to always address disputes in a transparent and timely manner, always acting in good faith, through open and constructive discussion. If such discussions fail to resolve a dispute, an authorised representative of the supplier and the company shall, within 30 days of a written request from one party to the other, meet in good faith to resolve the dispute. If the dispute remains unresolved either the supplier or the company shall refer it to mediation in accordance with the Centre for Effective Dispute Resolution ("CEDR") Model Mediation Procedure that is in force at the date of the referral
