What's PantherBuy?
The PantherBuy system is a web-based procurement tool which links authorized University of Pittsburgh purchasers to contracted suppliers. The University uses this system to streamline the process of purchasing goods.
› Purchasers selects goods from an online catalog of selected suppliers or punches out to a supplier’s customized University of Pittsburgh website.
› Purchasers create requisitions to request the purchase of the selected goods.
› Requisitions are automatically and electronically routed for approval.
› Approved requisitions are then transmitted electronically to suppliers for fulfillment.
› The University pays suppliers automatically without the need of an invoice.
Pitt was the 50th higher education institution to become a SciQuest customer. SciQuest is currently being used by Notre Dame, Yale, Penn State, University of Pennsylvania, M.I.T, University of Michigan and University of Southern California to name a few.
