The story in short
- 11 invoices funded between November 2024 and June 2025
- 10 funding days across 8 months
- 8 invoices funded in 2025
- 2 increases to their funding limit
The gap
The council places orders department by department, with no single contract behind them. Each purchase order means buying materials and casting slabs before payment arrives.
That makes cash timing hard to plan: when one order is nearly finished, they’re still waiting on the next one.
