Frequently asked questions

Here are some of the questions we’re regularly asked

Contracts: is email enough?

We can accept email communications as adjustments to contracts once a general agreement or Master Services Agreement is in place. They are valid providing there is clear intent. If you are an existing supplier, then only your commissioning manager or a board director are authorised to make purchase orders or contractual requests.

Location: When and where do we deliver?

For current addresses see our contact details

Tax: Which VAT regime to you fall under?

We are VAT registered in the UK and all our work is subject to the VAT sales tax of the UK.

Split invoices: Can I invoice half now and half at the end?

We normally only pay suppliers on receipt of the goods or services that have been commissioned. On projects of two months’ duration or more, you can request interim payments via your commissioning manager.

Timescale for payment: When do we get paid?

Our payment terms are explained in the ‘suppliers’ charter’. If you are from a small firm and are in a cashflow squeeze, then let us know and we will try to pay you earlier than what we have contractually agreed to.
