Case Study: Xavier University achieves modern eProcurement, streamlined payments and greater spend control with Unimarket

How Xavier University evolved its eProcurement with Unimarket

Xavier University, a 7,000‑student institution with decentralized purchasing across four colleges, found its long‑running eProcurement platform had stagnated and blocked adoption of new features for supplier management, invoicing, contracts and expense controls. When the contract came up for renewal they selected Unimarket to modernize their eProcurement environment and enable future expansion.

Unimarket delivered a smooth implementation of a modern eProcurement platform (including contract and expense management) and rolled out Unimarket Payments to automate supplier disbursements. As a result, Xavier now routes almost all supplier spend through the platform, achieved significant cost savings, reduced manual check printing and supplier maintenance, and gained improved spend visibility and earlier year‑end reconciliation thanks to Unimarket’s ongoing partnership.
