When I worked for an IT distributor, they had to use D&B on every one of their 5000 customers, no matter how big or small they were. At the highest level of involvement, they can basically give you a risk assessment ratings to help out if you don't understand figures being thrown at you. Using these services you can also find out a lot more information about a business like previous trading names, the names of directors, whether directors have been disqualified before, what companies the directors used to work for, etc. The obvious question is what did D&B's rating of Wincrest say before it actually went into administration? Did it have any warnings? I doubt it would've had any warnings. Wincrest's problems were all due to a a huge development they were doing where they weren't getting payment. This being the case, the administrators were able to step in to try and trade them out of trouble. If their normal operations were causing them not to be able to pay debt, they would have probably been put into liquidation or may have asked for another builder to buy them out.
