Sectors We Cover
The recovery route may be similar, but the evidence, payment cycle and likely dispute are not. We tailor our approach to the way each sector contracts, invoices, delivers and gets paid.
We do not treat every overdue invoice in the same way
A strong recovery strategy starts with understanding what makes the debt valid, what documents support it and what the debtor is likely to challenge.
Different payment triggers
A construction debt may depend on an application or retention release. A recruitment fee may depend on a candidate start date. A SaaS invoice may depend on a subscription or renewal term.
Different supporting evidence
Proof may come from signed timesheets, PODs, site records, ticket logs, usage data, inspection reports, delivery notes or project approvals.
Different dispute patterns
We anticipate the likely objections—defects, rebates, SLA failures, off-hire dates, returns, scope changes, damage or service-level deductions.
Different commercial pressure
A practical settlement may suit an ongoing supply relationship, while a clear one-off debt may justify faster formal escalation.

The same recovery framework, applied differently
Every instruction still starts with the debtor, evidence, dispute and ability to pay. What changes is where we look and which risk matters most.
Contract-led debts
Common in construction, engineering, consultancy, FM and technology projects.
- Identify the payment trigger
- Check scope, milestones and notices
- Separate genuine disputes from delay
- Escalate only when the claim is ready
Supply-led debts
Common in manufacturing, wholesale, packaging and agriculture.
- Match orders, deliveries and invoices
- Check credits, returns and shortages
- Review quality or specification claims
- Consider title or insolvency risk
Recurring-service debts
Common in recruitment, cleaning, IT support, software and property services.
- Confirm service periods and usage
- Review SLA, attendance or ticket records
- Check cancellation and notice terms
- Separate older arrears from new disputes
