Enhancing the UC-Jaggaer Partnership

On April 27th, UCOP hosted the 2017 Jaggaer West Coast Regional User Group (RUG) at the Oakland City Conference Center. Jaggaer (formerly known as SciQuest) is the eProcurement system used by UC. The event was well attended by participants of the University of California (including UCSF, UCSD, UCSC, UCB, UCSF, UCOP), representatives from other Universities, and other Jaggaer customers.

Also in attendance was Robert Bonavito, Jaggaer’s CEO, and Zia Zahiri, Jaggaer’s CTO.  Having them as part of the meeting provided a platform to have a deep discussion about the opportunities in the Jaggaer solution as well as widening the avenues of communication.

The day-long agenda covered best practices and capabilities for the source-to-settle product suite. It also included a customer success presentation from UCSD on their use of commodity codes as well as a general discussion on the future enhancements of the software. 

The collaboration between the attendees was invaluable. By sharing questions and ideas, participants were able to learn from each other’s experience.  We look forward to continuing more of this type of dialogue with Jaggaer.
