Retention circumstances
Retention clauses are used in specific circumstances:
Some of our historic Construction contracts contain retention clauses of roughly 5% - 10% of the project value. This is generally used to cover the defect correction period, which is typically 12-24 months. Most of our recent tender awards do not contain retention clauses.
Retention release
Where applicable, the retention is released in a lump sum against the defect retention period.
Retention release stages
If the project is milestone applicable, we would release in-line with milestone completion instead of waiting for project completion.

Reported terms and dispute process
- Standard payment terms
Net monthly.
Net monthly is the standard payment term offered. This means that when an invoice is received for payment it will be paid by the end of the following month e.g. an invoice received on 31 Jan would be paid by 28 Feb (shortest duration of standard payment terms i.e. 28 days) or an invoice received on 1 Jul would be paid by 31 Aug (longest duration of standard payment terms i.e. 61 days) . - Other payment-term information
no
- Dispute resolution process
The Accounts Payable department will initially take responsibility for disputes relating to payment processing. Where a dispute is commercial in nature, or requires operational resolution, the case will be passed to the person responsible for raising the order for timely clearance.

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.

People with significant control

- Owns 75% or more of shares
- 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.
