Any other information about payment terms

Dispute Resolution Process

Orders placed with Suppliers are formalised by issuing a Purchase Order (PO) and invoices not quoting a valid JCDecaux PO number will be returned to the Supplier accompanied with relevant explanation. Disputes are resolved between the relevant JCDecaux internal ‘buyer’ and the Supplier, keeping Accounts Payable advised of reason for dispute or query. The Company strives to resolve all disputes in a fair and timely manner. Upon resolution and after any PO amendments or credit note receipt payment will be processed where necessary.
