What is Spend Director from SciQuest?

With Spend Director, users can automate requisition creation so when they make a purchase and add it to their cart, the selections are also being stored for future orders. All approvals for purchases are paperless, getting rid of order errors and lessening fulfillment delays and shipping fees. Spend Director also automates more difficult processes like budget confirmation and hazardous materials clearance.

Spend Director has more than 2,000 active supplier integrations with hosted and punch-out catalogs, so customers have a wide variety of suppliers to choose from and then work with. Spend Director also features already built-in catalog management, contract compliance tracking and supplier enablement.

Using the SciQuest Supplier Network, Spend Director automates the purchase order process, including management and tracking. Users can also attach more information to purchase orders like terms and conditions, for example. The software also still integrates with an organization's already in-place ERP system or financial applications.

SciQuest offers 24/7 mobile access to the e-procurement software, as well.
