SciQuest

SciQuest was a spend-management and e-procurement software company founded in 1995 that grew into a source-to-settle suite spanning e-procurement, sourcing, contract lifecycle management, spend analytics, accounts payable and supplier management. In 2017 SciQuest rebranded as JAGGAER and consolidated its products into the JAGGAER One source-to-pay platform.
