The firm said the customer has made payments to Brady totalling £288,000, but has "not paid a number of further amounts in line with its contractual obligations". Discussions over the payments have broken down. Brady said it believes that the software has been delivered and it has been accepted by the client, adding that it "will consider all possible legal avenues for collection of the outstanding amounts".
