Science Exchange is an R&D supplier orchestration and procurement platform for life-sciences organizations. It runs a marketplace of 3,800+ pre-qualified scientific service providers under a single master service agreement, and streamlines supplier sourcing, onboarding, contracting, compliance, and payment. The platform integrates with ERP (SAP, Oracle, Workday), P2P (Ariba, Coupa), and SSO/SAML identity systems, and exposes a read-only Providers REST API (v1) that lets scientific-service suppliers pull their RFQs, quotes, services, facilities, line items, ratings, tags, and users. Founded in 2011 and headquartered in Palo Alto, California; backed by a16z, Index Ventures, and Union Square Ventures.
