What is eMACS

eMACS, or the electronic Montana Acquisition and Contracting System, is the eProcurement software solution utilized by the State of Montana that provides vendor management services, bid and procurement processes, and contract management tools, as well as the ability to track contract spend. 

The Department of Administration signed an enterprise-wide contract with SciQuest, Inc., now known as JAGGAER, a leader in public sector procurement and contract management solutions to provide the State with these vendor, procurement, and contract management tools.
