Often referred to as buyer specific catalog, a
PunchOut website is a customized solution that is
designed keeping the users requirements in mind.
A PunchOut catalog that establishes a direct
connection between the suppliers website and the
customers procurement system helps to ease the
purchasing process.

Unlike the traditional way, the customer doesnt
have to login with his credentials to view the
suppliers website. A single click enables the
customer to access the site. This feature
automates the ordering process, with suppliers
receiving purchase orders via email. Every
PunchOut catalog solution is unique and setup
differently. It is customized in the sense that
customers get to view products that fall under
their contract agreement. So the contract catalog
will have products that the customer is entitled
to purchase. It is a pre-approved contract,
which will not contain products that the customer
cannot order. The inventory as well as the
pricing information in the catalog is as per the
terms of contract agreement. So there is no
question of purchasing products that violate
contract policies.

A PeopleSoft PunchOut catalog offers a
personalized shopping experience that is both
seamless and memorable. With this website, the
supplier can show relevant recommendations
(upsell and cross-sell) as well as offer
discounts that are targeted to that specific
customer. The supplier can also do promotions
that are also aimed at that particular shopper.
So whatever offers and suggestions displayed on
the site are unique, hence provide more customer
engagement.   On the whole, a SciQuest PunchOut
provides an easy way to access pre-negotiated
contract catalog through procurement system.
Moreover, it is personalized to each shopper,
hence can help to boost brand loyalty and
increase customer retention. So as a supplier if
you want to woo large buyers, make sure that you
sell products via PunchOut.
