Maximum contractual payment information
Note that regarding subcontract, this is 30 days from the due date within the contract. The application document date or date the application is received may be earlier than the due date however the payment date is fixed within the contract.
Retention parity policy
The retention percentage is no higher than that applied to the business by its customers. Retention is usually set at the same % as the main contract.
Retention release
Supply chain retentions are released in accordance with the terms of the relevant contract and are no more onerous than those applied to Eric Wright Construction on the same project.
Retention release stages
If a project has various sectional completion dates, we will release retention to reflect these stages, if there is a single PC date then retention is released accordingly.
Typically, retention is released in two stages: part on practical completion and the balance following expiry of the defects liability/rectification period and satisfactory completion of any outstanding defects.

Reported terms and dispute process
- Standard payment terms
All payment terms are generally 30 days. For purchase ledger this will be 30 days from invoice date. In respect of subcontractor payments, these terms are 30 days from the due date of the application for payment, the due date being dictated by the payment schedule bound within the terms of the Sub-Contract. The contracts all state a latest application date which is 3 days prior to the due date. The payments are then made within no more than 30 days from the due date of the application.
As this report requires reporting based on "invoice date" these subcontractor payments may fall into the 30 - 60 day aged data category, however they have in fact been paid on time. Over 95% of invoices and subcontractor payments are actually settled within contracted payment terms. - Dispute resolution process
Purchase ledger invoices – suppliers should contact the accounts department in relation to queries. Disputes will be resolved with the assistance of personnel ordering the goods or services and invoice processing is subject to completed purchase orders and appropriate receipt or proof of delivery. Queries or disputes in relation to subcontractor payments should be addressed in the first instance to the relevant Quantity Surveyor or to the Subcontract Ledger Clerk within the accounts department. Any unresolved issues thereafter can be referred to the surveying / Commercial Director(s).

The supplier link is exact, but the award remains buyer-published procurement data. BritDB requires the GB-COH identifier supplied in the Contracts Finder OCDS release and does not infer suppliers from similar names.

PSC records are company-filed public-register information. When the exact same displayed individual name occurs at multiple companies, BritDB offers a non-indexed cross-reference page. It is a name match only, not proof that the records describe the same person. Service addresses and partial dates of birth are deliberately omitted.
06 Charity register
Charity Commission links
No exact company-number link in this snapshot
The Charity Commission extract did not explicitly associate this Companies House number with a charity. BritDB does not use a name-only match to fill the gap.
This company-level check covers the Charity Commission for England and Wales. Links are accepted only when the official extract supplies this exact company registration number. Scottish charities now have separate OSCR profiles, but OSCR’s bulk fields do not provide a Companies House number, so BritDB does not infer a company link.
07 Northern Ireland charity register
CCNI exact company links
No unambiguous company-number link found
The CCNI source number did not resolve uniquely to this Companies House record. BritDB did not use a name or address match.
CCNI publishes company numbers without a jurisdiction prefix. BritDB links only when the plausible padded UK and NI candidates resolve to exactly one Companies House company.
08 Sanctions screening
UK Sanctions List
No exact business-registration-number link found
The imported UK Sanctions List did not supply this Companies House number as a UK-linked business identifier. BritDB did not attempt a name-only match.
No exact link is not sanctions clearance. UK restrictions can apply through ownership or control even where an entity is not separately named. Always use the current official list and obtain appropriate advice for a legally significant decision.
