Using "Quote Request" feature
Requesting a formal quotation allows educational institutions, businesses, and non-profits to secure specialized academic pricing, bulk discounts, or custom classroom bundles. The process functions similarly to an online shopping cart, allowing you to build a comprehensive list of items before submitting them to an account representative for review.
Your Step-by-Step Guide to Requesting a Quote
- Browse and Select Products
- Navigate through the catalog of STEM software, robotics components, and hardware.
- Locate the Request Quote or Quote button on the product page (positioned where the "Add to Cart" or "Buy" button usually sits).
- Click the button to add the item to your temporary Quotation Cart.
- Access Your Quotation Cart
- Hover your mouse over the Quote icon located in the top header of the website.
- Click GO TO QUOTE from the dropdown menu to open your full quote dashboard.
- Provide Institutional and Contact Details

- Note specific volume demands (e.g., matching seat counts for multi-user software licenses).
- Submit Your Request
- Review your item list and click Submit Request.
- You will receive an automated email confirmation containing your transaction reference details.
- A dedicated Studica account manager will review the request and email a formal PDF price proposal, typically within 24 business hours.
When to Use the "Request Quote" Feature
- When you need a quote before issuing a purchase order
- Academic and Multi-Seat Software Volumes: Multi-user licensing for software lines like National Instruments LabVIEW or Chaos V-Ray requires structured pricing tailored to the exact user count.
- Bulk Training & Robotics Hardware: High-value bundles, such as Studica Robotics Training Kits or heavy industrial simulation models, require individual review for bulk discounting and shipping considerations.
- Tax-Exempt and Purchase Order (PO) Procurement: Schools and non-profit entities utilizing formal Net-30 purchase orders must generate a formal quote to attach to their internal procurement documentation.
