Dispute Resolution Process

All is business is transacted on the basis of a formal written purchase order. Where business is initially agreed verbally a confirmation written (email or print) purchase order is supplied along with a purchase order number. In rare instance when an invoice is received from a supplier with discrepancies from the purchase order (either in terms of pricing, or goods/services supplied), this is determined at the point of verification of the invoice versus the order, and dialogue is entered into with the supplier by the appropriate person in our business that originally placed the order. In this manner the vast majority of discrepancies are resolved prior to the due date for payment of the invoice. In the exceptional circumstances, the issue is escalated to the Managing Director to resolve with the supplier.
