Invoice Payment Practices

This information is as reported by the business, and responses are in their own words.

Payment Terms

Standard payment terms

Suppliers must submit their invoices quoting a valid purchase order to ensure the invoice can be processed and made available for payment. Invoices must not be submitted prior to the goods/service being delivered. Equans’ standard payment terms are 60 days, depending on the size of the supplier. Where they have been identified as a company employing 50 employees or less, or operating as part of a public sector contract, they are allocated 30-day payment terms.

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

Dispute Resolution Process

All disputes are managed via our Procure to Pay system with suppliers being notified of a dispute, via e-mail, as soon as the invoice is processed. We aim to resolve all disputes within 10 working days to ensure our supplier can be paid within agreed terms. This is, however, dependent, in part, on timely responses from the supplier to rectify any issues.

Other Payment Information

Has this business signed up to a code of conduct or standards on payment practices?

For example, signatories to The Prompt Payment Code must commit to paying 95% of their invoices within 60 days.

Does this business offer e-invoicing in relation to qualifying contracts?

This is where suppliers can electronically submit and track invoices. It's not just allowing suppliers to email them an invoice.

Does this business offer supply chain finance?

This is where a supplier who has submitted an invoice can be paid by a third-party finance provider earlier than the agreed payment date. The business would then pay the finance provider the invoiced sum.

Under its payment practices and policies, can this business deduct sums from payments under qualifying contracts as a charge for remaining on a supplier list?
