Retention circumstances
Generally, it is the usual practice of the company to include the use of retention clauses in most qualifying construction contracts but there may be occasional exceptions based on for example project type, supplier negotiation, and/or commercial considerations.
Generally, the company’s standard percentage rate in retention clauses in qualifying construction contracts is between 3%-5% but there may be exceptions based on for example project type, supplier negotiation, and/or commercial considerations.
Retention release
The process for the release of monies deducted or retained by the company under any retention clause in a qualifying construction contract between the company and its supplier will depend on the terms of each individual contract. However, generally, release of retention monies follows the industry norm; typically 50% of the retention monies is released following certified completion of the works with the remaining 50% released following the valid conclusion of any defects liability period.

Reported terms and dispute process
- Standard payment terms
Our 2025 Standard Conditions of Purchase provide for payment at the end of the month following the month in which an invoice is received, subject to (i) a valid invoice being properly provided by the supplier and (ii) the relevant Supplies being delivered and accepted by us, in accordance with the contract. The full text of the standard payment term can be located in Clause 9 of the 2025 Standard Conditions of Purchase at: https://www.baesystems.com/en-uk/what-we-do/suppliers/united-kingdom.
Whilst the company does contract certain of its material business on the basis of programme-specific bespoke terms and conditions, the relevant payment terms are largely consistent with those contained within the Standard Conditions of Purchase. - Other payment-term information
Where the date that an invoice has been received cannot be reliably established (primarily due to IT limitations), the supplier’s invoice date is used as day “0” for the purposes of the calculation of the reported payment statistics.
It is not precisely known when payments actually credit into a supplier’s bank account (we do not have systems that accurately record this event). Therefore for the production of the disclosed statistics, we have made a reasoned estimation of when payments have cleared into a supplier's bank account.
Where an invoice has been settled through the matching of a credit note, this invoice is not included in the payment statistics. If there is a partial match of a credit note against an invoice, the payment of the remainder of the invoice is included in the payment statistics. - Dispute resolution process
As per our standard conditions of purchase, if a payment dispute arises, then the parties are required to follow a disputed invoicing process and use reasonable endeavours to resolve the dispute amicably.
For UK contracts, our full dispute resolution process can be found in Clauses 9 and 35 of the 2025 Standard Conditions of Purchase at: https://www.baesystems.com/en-uk/what-we-do/suppliers/united-kingdom. Any disputes that cannot be resolved are subject to arbitration.

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.
09 Ownership and control

- Controls 75% or more of voting rights

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.
10 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.
11 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.
12 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.

These links use only the GB-COH identifier supplied in the procurement record. A company may have other public-sector work that is absent, older, below publication thresholds or published without a Companies House identifier.
14 Environmental register
Environment Agency waste registrations
No exact company-number registration linked
The licensed Environment Agency subset did not contain this exact Companies House number. BritDB did not attempt a name-only match.
This is a privacy-reduced, exact-company subset. The full official register also includes sole traders and applicants without a matching Companies House number. Check the current Environment Agency register before relying on registration status.
