Process for CCS acceptance to excessive payments terms operated by Alexandr Mann Solutions

Response to this request is long overdue. By law, under all circumstances, Crown Commercial Service should have responded by now (details). You can complain by requesting an internal review.

Dear Crown Commercial Service,

I submit this Freedom of Information request to you to ascertain the process by which you approve of the excessive and against CCS practice guidelines of the extended contractor payment terms implemented by Alexander Mann Solutions for the operation of the PSR framework. As a public sector contractor of many years, the unfair extension to payment terms from one week to an advised 40 days period is beyond incompetence and causes hardship, mistrust and negative reputational impact to HMG and particularly yourselves.

Yours faithfully,

Colin Harris
