Beekr Introduces First-of-Its-Kind Online Scientific Marketplace to Address the Billions Lost in Productivity Everyday in Scientific Procurement

SYDNEY, Oct. 31, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Beekr, has announced the release of its pioneering open online marketplace dedicated to all products science-related. Beekr is an open marketplace collating leading scientific suppliers and product manufacturers from around the world, in one easy-to-search online location. Customers can compare prices, contact and purchase directly from sellers, and combine purchases from multiple suppliers into one streamlined transaction. Having the ability to compare products from numerous suppliers in one location reduces the time previously required to research and source products.

"Beekr's unique open marketplace is completely free for sellers to join and list an unlimited number of scientific products. Beekr has no subscription fees and it only takes 5 minutes for a seller to establish their online profile and start selling. By making the registration process easy for our sellers, we are able to offer a greater range of products to our customers who previously would spend hours searching the web, and weeks in the procurement process. You can compare the prices of identical and related items from a wide range of suppliers instantly. Customers can contact sellers directly, and at no cost to the seller. Beekr is all about making finding and sourcing scientific product as easy and pain-free as possible. We will also be rolling out specialized tools for our customers to improve asset management and the tender process. These features will also be offered free of charge," said Vishnu Jayakumar, Software Development Manager at Beekr. "We plan to keep releasing new features and rapidly adding more sellers throughout 2018 to ensure Beekr offers the best online hub for all scientific organizations to begin and end their product search."

Scientific procurement continues to grow rapidly around the world, and efforts to maximize limited financial resources and purchase essential products are impeded by exclusive distribution agreements, lock-in procurement contracts, geographic restrictions, and outdated purchasing systems and processes. In 2017, over $170 billion will be spent on Life Science R&D; the time and money lost throughout the procurement process is massive. The traditional method of procurement used by many laboratories is time-consuming, restrictive, and does not always result in the best or most cost-effective product solution. Finding workarounds and loopholes is commonplace in research organizations, as purchasing offers do everything they can to avoid bureaucratic headaches, and expedite procurement times.

"Every day, extraordinary scientists around the world are impeded by cumbersome purchasing systems, lack of product information, and limited knowledge of where to find the specialised products they need," said Kwong Choi, Web Developer at Beekr. "Our groundbreaking online marketplace is the culmination of a 15-year journey to address the problems of scientific procurement. We are thrilled by the fantastic feedback we are receiving both buyers and sellers about our marketplace."
