What's on the agenda?
As contributors to the Government’s ongoing e‑invoicing consultation, Tim and Ellen will draw on their direct involvement in shaping policy and industry practice to cover:
- The global state of e‑invoicing – and why it matters to UK construction
- Inside the UK Government’s consultation – what to expect next
- How late payment measures will impact large contractors – including reporting, compliance, and reputational risk
- Why receipting is now central to payment assurance – and how to make it work for you
- Practical next steps for procurement and finance teams
This session is designed for finance and procurement leaders at major contractors who want to stay ahead of regulatory change, improve payment performance, and reduce risk through automation. It’s especially relevant to teams looking to improve visibility, compliance, and supplier relationships within complex supply chains.
Tim has been a leader in promoting, and delivering, digital business solutions for over 25 years and continues to support industry-wide engagement as Tradex Community Envoy with Causeway Technologies. Working within the construction supply chain for over 10 years, running a major material supply business, establishing national and international data exchange standards, and establishing the now widely adopted Causeway Tradex platform, Tim has a wealth of knowledge and experience. This is also proving relevant in supporting the construction sector to readily access real-time carbon and sustainability data.
