Quartzy for academic & university labs

Your researchers should be doing research.

Quartzy takes ordering, inventory, and requisitions off the bench, so your lab spends its grant dollars and its hours on research, not paperwork.

The problem

Administrative workflows shouldn't slow your research.

Every hour a grad student or postdoc spends chasing a requisition or hunting for a reagent is an hour away from the bench.

Stockouts stall experiments.

A missing reagent can cost a student a week of bench time.

Buying is scattered.

University systems, supplier accounts, PI approvals by email, receipts in someone's inbox

Spend is invisible until it's too late.

Most labs don’t see grant spend until the department statement arrives. Quartzy gives PIs and lab managers live reports and lab-level approvals, so they can track every grant as it’s spent.

Quartzy removes the drag.

More than software

Quartzy isn't just software, it's an end-to-end experience.

The platform, the distributor, and a partnership with your purchasing office, in one ecosystem that supports your lab from first grant to whole department.

The software

Your lab runs efficiently

Inventory, shop, and procurement all in one place. Visible to everyone, decreasing wasted grant dollars and experimental delays due to stock-outs.

My lab ran the first beta tests of the PunchOut. I love Quartzy and do not know what I would do without it!
