SciQuest announced that Memorial Sloan-Kettering, the world's oldest and largest private institution devoted to the prevention, treatment, and cure of cancer, has selected SelectSite SRA, a comprehensive sourcing and requisition application designed specifically for research-intensive organizations.

SelectSite SRA (Sourcing and Requisition Application) is the core application for sourcing and requisitioning scientific supplies. Using SelectSite SRA, organizations can consolidate their research requisition needs into a single online location with a minimal investment of internal technology resources.

SRA also helps research organizations leverage their investment in enterprise procurement applications such as Ariba by providing research-centric sourcing capabilities and integration that drives user adoption and productivity. Scientists can search for products on-line in an e-catalog populated with rich product data, images, and links to additional product data, as well as journal articles and other resources.

Using SelectSite SRA, organizations can:

-- enable researchers to easily find and requisition research products;

-- automate the requisition process, gaining procurement time savings and decreasing costly errors; and

-- integrate with most ERP, ESV, and financial systems, such as Ariba, Oracle, Commerce One, SAP, Concur, Peachtree, and Solomon.

SelectSite SRA can be implemented quickly and inexpensively, and configured to an organization's internal business practices. Additional SciQuest solutions can also be integrated with SelectSite SRA, including SciPak Research Solutions for robust discipline-specific product sourcing and SciQuest Professional Services for e-commerce consulting, implementation, and on-site training engagements.
