Standard contracts: For PwC standard contracts we seek to resolve any issues in the first instance between the authorised representatives of the firm and the supplier. Both parties should, where possible, meet within five days of the dispute arising and should continue to perform their relevant obligations, whilst working together to resolve the dispute. If the matter cannot be resolved, the issue may require escalation to senior members of both the supplier and PwC. Should it be required, the firm will seek the assistance of the mediation services of the Centre for Effective Dispute Resolution (CEDR) - for more information: https://www.cedr.com/commercial/. Implied contracts: The above process will also apply where there is no formal contract in place. The authorised representative will be the supplier’s main contact with PwC for these purchases (typically the person who ordered the goods or services and who has been named on the invoice).
