Procurement Software for Universities

Does your purchasing software cover all the bases?

Modern procurement teams are being asked to do more than process purchases. They're expected to manage risk, support sustainability and demonstrate value for money. IQ Purchasing has everything teams need in one place: built-in compliance, pre-approved suppliers and real-time spend visibility.

Bring clarity to every purchase

Spend less time on transactional admin, more time creating value for your university

When purchasing happens across disconnected systems and processes, procurement teams can spend valuable time managing exceptions, correcting errors and trying to understand where money is going. A more connected approach gives teams the foundation to move beyond transactional work and focus on savings, supplier relationships and wider university priorities.

Over 100+ universities are powered by our solutions

Better value from every supplier deal

Guide spend to your best-performing suppliers and agreements.

When staff purchase outside agreed contracts, procurement loses visibility and negotiating power. By making approved routes easier to use, procurement teams can influence more purchasing decisions and help the university get greater value from the suppliers and agreements already in place.

    More capacity for procurement

    Reduce the admin burden holding procurement back

    Manual processes, duplicated information and invoice queries can take time away from the work that creates greater value. Simplifying purchasing and reducing manual intervention gives procurement teams more capacity to focus on supplier relationships, strategic sourcing and opportunities to improve.

      Real-time spend visibility

      Turn purchasing data into procurement intelligence

      Better visibility gives procurement teams more than a record of what has already been spent. It provides the intelligence needed to understand purchasing behaviour, identify trends and uncover opportunities to improve value, manage costs and influence future decisions.

        Clear processes, stronger governance

        Make oversight part of your day-to-day

        With increasing scrutiny around value for money and evolving procurement requirements, leaders need confidence in how purchasing is happening across the university. Greater consistency and visibility make oversight part of the day-to-day, helping teams strengthen governance while remaining focused on wider strategic priorities.

          More time. More savings. More impact.
