Company Review

Trend Analysis

ROBERTSON CONSTRUCTION GROUP LIMITED typically processes payments within an average of 32 days. A strong majority of 58% are paid within 30 days, indicating a generally prompt payment speed. However, a significant 38% are paid between 31 and 60 days, showing a consistent tendency to slightly exceed immediate payment terms.

Volatility Analysis

The company exhibits a moderate level of payment volatility, with 28% of payments being classified as late. This percentage indicates some inconsistency, making cash flow forecasting less precise for suppliers. A smaller but critical 4% of payments extend beyond 60 days, representing a low but definite risk of significant delays.

Summary Analysis

Overall, ROBERTSON CONSTRUCTION GROUP LIMITED poses a moderate payment risk, balancing a solid majority of timely payments against a notable late payment rate. Suppliers should factor in the 28% late payments and the 4% exceeding 60 days when establishing credit terms and managing expectations. Consider implementing proactive communication or structured payment schedules to manage potential delays effectively.

Invoice Payment Practices

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

Payment Terms

Standard payment terms

We do not have standard payment terms, instead they range from immediate payment due, to 60 days. The longer 60 day credit terms are for plant hire which are generally high volume, low value invoices. Payment terms are agreed with suppliers as part of contract negotiations. The most frequently used payment terms in the reporting period were 30 days. Suppliers are paid on a weekly basis by BACS.

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

Dispute Resolution Process

We are committed to resolving any disputed invoices quickly. We perform monthly purchase ledger reconciliations to highlight any invoices which are not on the ledger and to request these from suppliers. Separately, we also actively pursue goods received notes and service reports from suppliers. However, where it is not possible to reach agreement, a number of potential dispute resolution methods (for example, mediation, adjudication, expert determination, litigation and / or arbitration) may be used.
