Punchout Catalogs
Order Novara™ laboratory equipment directly from your organization's eProcurement system. Your team shops our live catalog, and the cart goes back into your system for approval like any other requisition.

A punchout catalog lets buyers open a supplier's website from inside their own procurement system. Instead of keeping static catalog files up to date or switching between websites, your users "punch out" to novarasci.com, choose products, and bring the cart back into your system to complete the purchase.
Researchers get access to our full product line, and purchasing keeps its approval workflows, budgets, and spend reporting in one place.
Why Use Punchout with Novara™
One System
Buyers order from inside the procurement platform they already use. No separate website accounts or credit cards.
Your Approvals
Every cart comes back as a requisition, so it follows your existing approval chains and cost centers.
Accurate Data
Product names, SKUs, and pricing carry over automatically, with no manual re-keying.
Full Product Detail
Buyers see the same specifications, data tables, and brochures that are on our website.
How It Works
- Log in to your organization's eProcurement system.
- Punch out by selecting Novara™ from your supplier list. This opens novarasci.com in a connected session.
- Build your cart from our catalog of hotplate stirrers, centrifuges, shakers, mixers, incubators, and accessories.
- Return the cart to your system, where it becomes a requisition. Once approved, the purchase order comes to us.
Supported Standards
Punchout connections use cXML (Commerce XML), the most widely used standard for punchout sessions and purchase orders, or OCI (Open Catalog Interface), which is common in SAP-based systems.
That covers most eProcurement and ERP platforms, including SAP Ariba, Coupa, Jaggaer, Oracle, Workday, PeopleSoft, NetSuite, Infor, Unimarket, and ESM Solutions. If your platform isn't listed but supports cXML or OCI, contact us and we'll confirm compatibility.
Getting Started
- Contact us at info@novarasci.com with your organization's name and procurement platform.
- Send your requirements, including enablement credentials, required fields, and any custom mapping such as cost centers or project codes.
- Test the connection. We set it up and run test sessions with your team.
- Go live. Once testing is approved, your buyers can start ordering.
Frequently Asked Questions
Who can use a Novara™ punchout catalog?
Universities, research institutions, hospitals, government labs, and companies that buy through an eProcurement or ERP system with punchout capability.

Your organization name, procurement platform, a technical or purchasing contact, and your platform's supplier enablement requirements. Your procurement team can usually provide these.
Can the connection pass custom fields?
