Dispute Resolution Process
Escalation process for disputed invoices Turner Broadcasting System Europe Limited Primary Requirements: Turner Broadcasting System Europe Limited (“TBSEL”) operates a purchase order policy. TBSEL reserves the right to reject invoices directly back to suppliers if, where applicable, they are not accompanied by a valid PO number. Where a PO has been issued by TBSEL, accompanying invoices should not exceed the value of the PO. Internal stakeholders raise requests for new suppliers via Procurement. Applications are filtered to determine whether existing alternatives exist, or whether tendering / benchmarking is required. A New Supplier Pack is sent to the potential provider, complete with standard MSA, banking request details, a COI and GDPR form. Suppliers are then loaded into PeopleSoft to enable POs to be raised.
