Payment Terms

Standard payment terms

Purchase Ledger (supplier payments) - Payment unless stated otherwise in the Purchase Order will be made 45 days (30 days for small suppliers) after the date of a valid invoice bearing the Purchaser's Purchase Order number provided the Goods have been delivered and all requisite contract documentation submitted in accordance with the Contract prior to receipt of the said invoice. Sub-contract Ledger - Our standard payment terms are variable and between 30 and 45 days from the measured to date dependent on the subcontract agreement Where obligated by our clients we pass down the client contract payment terms in our subcontract agreements.

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

No

Any other information about payment terms

The statistical information provided includes payments to both purchase ledger and sub-contract suppliers. Payments in the 6 months to 31/12/2023 for identifiable supplier companies with under 50 employees (previous 6 months in brackets): 30 Days or Less % of Total: 77% (78%) 31 to 60 Days % of Total : 18% (18%) After 60 Days % of Total : 5% (4%) Avg Days to Pay : 28 (29) During this reporting period the Company implemented a new ERP system. As predicted, this has had a short-term negative impact on our supply chain payment performance and is expected to continue do so at least into the next DRPPP reporting period. In particular, this prevented further improvement in relation to <30 day payments to smaller suppliers. Despite the ERP implementation, average days to pay reduced in the 6 month period to 23 days.
