Business benefits for any industry

SciQuest can help any company realize the potential of strategic procurement. Working with nearly 100 customers, thousands of suppliers, and many of the leading technology providers, we can deliver a tailored source-to-settle solution to help you manage spend, reduce costs and drive ROI.

Enable rich catalog content from suppliers

To drive user adoption, purchasing efficiency and spend visibility, you need a critical mass of supplier content. Offering both hosted and punch-out access to multi-commodity supplier catalogs, the SciQuest Supplier Network comprises a broad array of goods and services: office, MRO, computer/IT, manufacturing, publications, scientific, food service and more. SciQuest can also streamline enabling new suppliers with our supplier enablement tools and services.

Gain more contract compliance

The SciQuest solution does more than transform the way users buy, it impacts what they actually buy. You can make corporate purchasing agreements an integral part of your procurement system through our easy-to-use shopping interface. Because it simulates the online experience users are accustomed to, users are more likely to use the system and buy on-contract. You have the power to highlight preferred suppliers or specific discounts. Our sophisticated search capability and decision-making tools simplify the buying process, ensuring end user satisfaction.

Shorten processing cycles with automation

Reduce your order processing cycles by transitioning to electronic processing. You can create and route requisitions, place and track orders with suppliers, provide order status, and reconcile invoices - all electronically.

Tighten the reconciliation process

You can streamline invoice reconciliation against purchase orders and receiving documentation for faster settlement. Simply link the received goods and services electronically to the originating order. Finish the reconciliation process with a match-up of suppliers' invoices to the correct receipts and/or orders. Take it one step farther and streamline the process with electronic invoicing.

Take advantage of opportunities to save

Spend analytics are vital to creating an awareness of organizational spending patterns, whether you're analyzing supplier, commodity or requisitioner data. Equipped with this kind of information, you can identify savings opportunities and audit both supplier and user compliance. SciQuest provides Business Intelligence reports for customized analysis and heightened visibility into enterprise-wide spending.
