Utah Universities Acquire Spend Management Software
Two
universities
in Utah have implemented plans to use cloud-based software to
manage their procurement processes.
The University of Utah and Weber State University have both created partnerships
with SciQuest, which
supplies cloud-based business automation technology
focused primarily on spend management.
Utah
State
University is already a client of SciQuest.
SciQuest
specializes
in procurement and spend management for higher education institutions,
helping them to centralize and manage procurement, maintain compliance
required
by regulatory agencies and reduce the overall cost of education with
better
planning of long-term cost savings.
"We
understand
the unique challenges institutions in higher education face and
provide a variety of products that remove roadblocks and turn spending
into a
strategic source of savings," said Doug Keister, senior vice president
of sales
at SciQuest. "SciQuest is the go-to solution for more than 200 colleges
and 400
campuses nationwide."
