Payment Terms

Standard payment terms

Most contracts have standard payment terms of 30 days, however some small businesses have an agreement to receive payment in shorter periods. We also have suppliers with 14 days payment terms these include the LEA and supply agencies (for education supply staff).

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

No

Any other information about payment terms

We continue to make every effort to chase suppliers for invoices and pay as soon as reasonably possible. We have an effective electronic email process ensuring we receive emails this way rather than by post. We are also considering in the near future invoice automation to again, further improve our payment process.

Maximum contractual payment period agreed

60

Dispute Resolution Process

The finance department deals with all disputes and keeps contact with the supplier so that a resolution can be found as soon as is practically possible. If the dispute of complaint is not resolved this will be passed to the Finance Lead or Director who will follow up. If no resolution, this will be passed to the CEO of the Trust to resolve.
