Retention circumstances
Our business consists of two main routes to market.
The first (and largest - by turnover, orders and numbers of contracts and approximately 80% of the totality of each of these measures) is our hire business. Within our hire business, other than in a small number of cases, construction contracts do not include a retention clause.
The second is our sales business. Within our sales business, most construction contracts would include a retention clause. Where the main contract between Portakabin and its customer is a JCT contract or NEC, or bespoke contract, the specified retention clause would be stepped down to the supply chain. For example, if the retention clause was 5%, we would step this down to any subcontract orders placed. Portakabin Form of Subcontract includes a retention clause. When trading on Portakabin's own terms we would also consider spend and risk when assessing the need to include retention. For example, if Portakabin has appointed a subcontractor that we had not worked with before, this could be seen as high risk, so we may want to include retention within the contract regardless of its value.
Retention parity policy
Terms within the main contract would be stepped down to the supply chain.
Retention release
The subcontractor would issue an application for payment to Portakabin and following review a Payment Notice would be issued to the subcontractor. Upon receipt of an invoice by Portakabin, the payment would be made in accordance with the subcontract.
Retention release stages
Retention is normally released in two stages. Half would be released upon practical completion / hand over of the project and the remaining 50% would be released 12 months later when the defects period ends.

- Dispute resolution process
Portakabin Limited values its suppliers and actively seeks to ensure prompt payment to reduce the risk of invoice rejections.
We work together with our partners to ensure errors are resolved before payment is due and where this is not possible ensuring the supplier is fully aware of the issue.
Any disputes are discussed in the first instance with the members of the accounts payable and credit control departments.
Where a dispute needs to be escalated it can be done so via emailing purchasingdept@portakabin.com
Root cause analysis of invoice accuracy ensures Portakabin is striving to improve performance in this area.

This is an exact normalised company-name match, not a registrar-confirmed ownership link. Another legal entity can have the same or a very similar name. UKIPO data is a historical 2018 snapshot; verify the owner and current status before relying on it.

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.
09 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.
10 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.
11 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.
