Maximum contractual payment information
There have been no changes to our standard payment terms however should a supplier have been newly appointed during the reporting period then our standard internal payment terms are made known on the supplier set up form as issued to the supplier for completion at the time of appointment. Scheduled payments to suppliers are now made four times in each calendar month. Standard payment terms are 45 days, with payments made when the date falls within the 7 days up to the weekly payment run date.
Reported terms and dispute process
- Standard payment terms
As an organisation we do not require or make available early settlement discounts as part of any contractual agreement. Standard payment terms updated in this submission to be the contracted standard.
- Dispute resolution process
Disputes relating to payments of invoices are referred to the Accounts Payable Team located at the Aspris Finance office, 10 Pioneer Court, Darlington in the first instance to determine the reasons for such disputes. Thereafter follows an established process involving discussions with the supplier in question, operational teams, Procurement and other central support services personnel as needed in an effort to satisfactorily resolve such disputes in a timely manner.

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.
07 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.
08 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.
09 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.
