Payment Terms

Standard payment terms

The preferred payment term for FedEx Express UK Transportation Limited is the payment of invoiced amounts within 45 days of receipt by FedEx Express UK Transportation Limited of a correctly rendered invoice

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

No information available

Any other information about payment terms

During the period in scope, FedEx has undertaken a Working Capital Improvement project.  As evidenced in the reported figures above, this project has resulted in an increase in invoices paid in the 30-60 days category, in line with FedEx preferred payment terms whilst maintaining a comparable "Paid on Time" percentage.   We therefore consider this transition to have been successful, as the adjustment in payment strategy to improve working capital has taken effect whilst maintaining relative POT figures which were not negatively impacted.

Maximum contractual payment period agreed

90

Dispute Resolution Process

FedEx Express UK Transportation Limited has a dedicated Accounts Payable helpdesk that offers support via email (apquery_EU@fedex.com). All queries sent via email will automatically issue the supplier with a unique ticket number. The ticket system ensures the suppliers queries are acknowledged within a maximum of three working days. All communication between the supplier and the service desk team will be recorded within the ticket number provided – this can be viewed at a later time by the team if required. Disputes involving more complex issues such as non-performance, pricing discrepancies or breach of contractual terms will be referred to FedEx Express UK Transportation Limited’s Procurement teams to liaise with the supplier.
