Suppliers may contact the BSC with all queries, including disputes. The BSC have full visibility of the invoice status at all times and well placed to support the supplier in answering their query. This includes escalating the matter to the relevant person in the business as and when required in order for the dispute to be resolved. 2) Contact their nominated IKEA contact Suppliers may also contact their nominated IKEA contact person i.e. the individual managing the provision of good or services on the IKEA side to raise any disputes directly. IKEA’s standard purchasing template includes a section specifying the details of the individual to be contacted (referred to as a “contract manager”), and also includes a dispute resolution section for all disputes.
