                               MERGER AGREEMENT

     THIS MERGER AGREEMENT (together with the Exhibits and Schedules hereto, the
"Agreement"), dated January 14, 2000, is entered into by and among
SciQuest.com, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Parent"), Lujack Subsidiary, Inc.,
a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent ("Mergersub"),
Intralogix, Inc., an Illinois corporation (the "Company"), and Mary T. Romac,
Timothy M. Brady and Dale L. Young (collectively, the "Founders").

                                   RECITALS

     A.  The Board of Directors of the Company and the shareholders of the
Company have approved the proposed merger (the "Merger") of Mergersub with and
into the Company in accordance with the Business Corporation Act of 1938 of the
State of Illinois (the "Illinois BCA Corporation Law") and on the terms and
conditions set forth herein.

     B.  The Board of Directors of Mergersub and Parent, the sole shareholder of
Mergersub, have approved the Merger in accordance with the Delaware General
Corporation Law (the "DGCL") and on the terms and conditions set forth herein.

     C.  The parties intend for the Merger, for federal income tax purposes, to
qualify as a "reorganization" within the meaning of Section 368 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"); however, nothing in this
Agreement shall be construed as a representation or warranty by Parent, or an
agreement by Parent to indemnify any party, with respect to the tax treatment or
tax effects of the transaction.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the recitals and the mutual covenants,
representations, warranties, conditions, and agreements hereinafter expressed,
the parties agree as follows:

                                   ARTICLE I
                                  THE MERGER

     1.1  The Merger. At the Effective Time, Mergersub shall merge with and into
          ----------
the Company through the filing of a Certificate of Merger with the Office of the
Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, in accordance with the applicable
provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law, and a Certificate of Merger
with the Office of the Secretary of State of the State of Illinois, in
accordance with the applicable provisions of the Illinois BCA (the time of the
later of such filings (collectively, the "Merger Filings") is hereinafter
referred to as the "Effective Time").  From and after the Effective Time, the
separate existence of Mergersub shall cease and the Company shall continue as
the surviving corporation (the "Surviving Corporation").

     1.2  The Closing.  The closing of the Merger (the "Closing") shall take
          -----------
place at the offices of Hutchison & Mason PLLC, 3110 Edwards Mill Road, Suite
100, Raleigh, North Carolina 27612, immediately prior to the filing of the
Merger Filings.  The Closing shall take place within five (5) business days
after the approval of the Merger by the shareholders of the
<PAGE>

Company, or on such other date as the parties may agree (the "Closing Date"). At
the Closing, each party shall execute and deliver to the other all such
agreements, documents, and instruments as may be required or contemplated by
this Agreement or as may be reasonably requested by any party to effect and
evidence the consummation of the Merger, all of which shall be in a form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the other parties.

     1.3  Conversion of the Company Stock.
          -------------------------------

     (a)  At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action
on the part of Parent, Mergersub, the Company or their respective stockholders,
each share of the capital stock of the Company issued and outstanding
immediately prior to the Effective Time (the "Company Stock") shall be canceled
and converted automatically into the right to receive the types and amounts of
consideration as set forth opposite each shareholder's name on Schedule 1.3
                                                               ------------
attached hereto. All undeclared or unpaid dividends on the capital stock of the
Company immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled at the
Effective Time.  All the Company stock held in the treasury of the Company
immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled and no consideration
of any kind shall be delivered in exchange therefor under this Agreement.

     (b)  At the Closing, each of the shareholders of the Company (the
"Shareholders") shall surrender and deliver to Parent the certificates
evidencing all of the issued and outstanding  shares of the Company Stock, in
accordance with the provisions of Section 1.7, in exchange for the aggregate
consideration payable to the Shareholders in the Merger, as described below (the
"Merger Consideration"). The Merger Consideration (which shall constitute all of
the consideration to be delivered to the Shareholders or any other person in
respect of the shares of capital stock, or rights to acquire shares of capital
stock, of the Company) shall be subject to adjustment as described in Sections
1.4 (Post-Closing Adjustment), 1.5 (Escrow Agreement), 1.6 (Holdback) and
Article VII (Indemnification). The Merger Consideration shall consist of (i) a
number of unregistered shares of the Common Stock, $0.001 par value, of Parent
("Parent Common Stock"), as described below (the "Merger Shares"), and (ii) a
total of $192,000.00 in cash (the "Cash Consideration").  The Merger Shares
shall be divided into two categories, (i) 19,250 unregistered shares of Parent
Common Stock (the "Initial Shares") and (ii) that number of unregistered shares
of Parent Common Stock equal to the quotient of $500,000 divided by the Average
Stock Price (the "Escrowed Shares").  The "Average Stock Price" shall mean the
average closing price of the Parent Common Stock as reported on the Nasdaq Stock
Market for the ten (10) trading day period ending on and including the second
trading day prior to the Closing Date. The Merger Consideration shall be payable
as follows:

               (i) Each Shareholder shall receive a certificate or certificates
     representing a number of Initial Shares, which shall be delivered to such
     Shareholder as soon as practicable following the Effective Time (subject to
     compliance by the Shareholder with the requirements relating thereto set
     forth in Section 1.7), and a portion of the Cash Consideration (subject to
     subparagraph (iii) below), each in the amounts set forth opposite such
     holder's name on Schedule 1.3 under the headings titled "Closing Payment -
                      ------------
     Cash" and "Closing Payment - Initial Shares"; and

<PAGE>

               (ii)  The Escrowed Shares payable to the Shareholders shall be
     withheld by Parent and delivered to Hutchison & Mason PLLC (the "Escrow
     Agent") in accordance with Section 1.5; and

               (iii) $25,000 of the Cash Consideration payable to the
     Shareholders (the "Holdback ") shall be withheld by Parent as deferred
     Merger Consideration and issued to the Shareholders in accordance with the
     provisions of Section 1.6.

     (c)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no fractional
shares of Parent Common Stock will be issued. Any person who would be entitled
to receive a fractional share of Parent Common Stock but for this Section will,
in lieu of such fractional share and upon surrender of such person's certificate
or certificates of the Company Capital Stock, receive cash (without interest) in
an amount equal to such fractional portion of a full share of Parent Common
Stock multiplied by the Average Stock Price.

     (d)  Each Shareholder's pro rata portion of the Initial Merger
Consideration, which includes the Escrowed Shares and the Holdback, is set forth
on Schedule 1.3 under the appropriately titled columns.  Shares of Parent Common
   ------------
Stock shall be valued for all purposes at the Average Stock Price.

     1.4  Post-Closing Adjustment.  Within ten (10) business days of the
          -----------------------
Closing, the Company shall deliver to Parent, in a form satisfactory to Parent,
financial statements and other documentation necessary to determine the total
amount of liabilities of the Company outstanding as of the Closing Date (the
"Closing Date Liabilities").  Parent shall have such access to the Company'
books and records as it deems necessary to verify the amount of such Closing
Date Liabilities.  Based on the Closing Date Liabilities, the Cash Consideration
payable to the Shareholders shall be reduced (the "Cash Adjustment") pro rata
among the Shareholders based on their respective ownership of the Company Stock,
on a dollar for dollar basis in an amount equal to the amount by which the
Closing Date Liabilities exceed $73,000 in the aggregate (inclusive of the
Company' January advertisement in American Laboratory), such reductions to be
                                  --------------------
paid from the Holdback described in Section 1.6.

     1.5  Escrow Agreement.
          ----------------

     (a)  On the Closing Date, Parent, each of the Shareholders and the Escrow
Agent shall execute an escrow agreement in the form of Exhibit A  (the "Escrow
                                                       ---------
Agreement"), pursuant to which Parent shall deposit into escrow the Escrowed
Shares in payment of part of the Initial Merger Consideration.  The Escrowed
Shares shall be available on the terms and conditions set forth herein and in
the Escrow Agreement (i) for the satisfaction of certain performance milestones
of the Company, and (ii) to secure the payment of any Indemnified Losses for
which the Shareholders are obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Persons under
Article VII hereof. During the period such Escrowed Shares are held in escrow,
all cash dividends, if any, paid with respect to the Escrowed Shares shall be
the property of, and shall be delivered to, the Shareholders, each in accordance
with their respective ownership interests, and each of the Shareholders shall
have the sole power to exercise all voting rights pertaining to their pro rata
portion of Escrowed Shares. All shares issued in respect of the Escrowed Shares
(including,
<PAGE>

without limitation, shares issued in connection with stock dividends, stock
splits, recapitalizations, reorganizations or similar transactions affecting the
Parent Common Stock) shall, upon issuance, be deposited in the escrow, held
subject to the terms and conditions of the Escrow Agreement and treated for all
purposes as Escrowed Shares.

     (b)  The adoption of this Agreement and the approval of the Merger by the
Shareholders shall constitute full approval by the Shareholders of the Escrow
Agreement and the appointment of Hutchison & Mason PLLC as the escrow agent
under the Escrow Agreement (the "Escrow Agent") and of all of the arrangements
relating thereto, including, without limitation, the indemnification provisions
and obligations set forth in Article VII of this Agreement, the placement in
escrow of the Escrowed Shares, and the appointment of Mary T. Romac to serve as
the Shareholders' representative (the "Shareholder Representative") to act as
the representative of the Shareholders for purposes of the Escrow Agreement and
this Agreement.

     1.6  Holdback. The Holdback portion of the Merger Consideration payable to
          --------
the Shareholders shall be withheld at Closing for satisfaction of any Cash
Adjustment determined in accordance with Section 1.4. Accordingly, the parties
agree that Parent shall be entitled to withhold at Closing the amount of cash
set forth opposite each Shareholder's name under the column titled "Holdback" on
Schedule 1.3.  Promptly after the Cash Adjustment has been finally and
------------
conclusively determined, Parent shall (subject to any reduction of the Holdback
pursuant to Section 1.5 hereof) pay to each Shareholder cash equal to such
Shareholder's portion of the Holdback as set forth on Schedule 1.3. The payment
                                                      ------------
of the Holdback shall be accompanied by a cash payment of interest accrued on
such installment payment since the Closing Date at the rate of eight percent
(8%) per annum.  Parent will be entitled to any interest earned on the portion,
if any, of the Holdback that is reduced as a result of the Cash Adjustment.

     1.7  Surrender and Exchange of Certificates. At the Closing, each of the
          --------------------------------------
Shareholders shall surrender and deliver to Parent the certificates evidencing
all of the issued and outstanding  shares of the Company Stock, duly endorsed by
such Shareholders, and upon such surrender, each such certificate shall
represent the right to receive such Shareholder's pro rata portion of the Merger
Consideration.  As soon as practicable following the Closing, Parent shall
instruct the  transfer agent of Parent Common Stock to issue the Merger Shares
and to deliver such Merger Shares to the Shareholders or the Escrow Agent, as
provided in this Agreement.

     1.8  Intentionally deleted.

     1.9  Intentionally deleted.

     1.10 Legend.  The shares of Parent Common Stock issued in connection with
          ------
the Merger will be issued in a transaction exempt from registration under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), by reason of Rule 506
of Regulation D thereof and, as such, will constitute restricted securities
within the meaning of Rule 144 promulgated thereunder.  Each certificate of the
Parent Common Stock issued in connection with the Merger will bear appropriate
legends to evidence such privately placed shares as being restricted under the
<PAGE>

Securities Act, and any other applicable restrictions upon the transferability
of the shares or otherwise. It is acknowledged and understood that Parent is
relying on certain representations made by the Shareholders in the Stockholder
Investment Representation Letters (as herein defined).  The Securities Act
legend shall read substantially as follows:

          THE SHARES OF STOCK EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN
          REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE
          "SECURITIES ACT"), AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, ASSIGNED,
          MORTGAGED, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED WITHOUT AN
          EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND ALL
          APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS COVERING SUCH SHARES, COMPLIANCE WITH
          AN EXEMPTION FROM SUCH REGISTRATION OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL
          SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.

     1.11 Conversion of Subsidiary Stock.  At the Effective Time, by virtue of
          ------------------------------
the Merger and without any action on the part of the Parent, Mergersub, the
Company or their respective stockholders, each share of Common Stock, having a
par value per share of $0.001, of Mergersub issued and outstanding immediately
prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and exchanged for one
validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock of the
Surviving Corporation, and, upon surrender of the certificate(s) representing
such shares of Mergersub Common Stock, the Surviving Corporation shall promptly
issue to the owner thereof a certificate representing the share of Common Stock
of the Surviving Corporation into which it has been converted.  Such share shall
be the only issued and outstanding capital stock of the Surviving Corporation
and shall be owned by the Parent.

     1.12 Certificate of Incorporation.  After the Effective Time, the
          ----------------------------
Certificate of Incorporation of Mergersub as in effect immediately prior to the
Effective Time shall be the Certificate of Incorporation of the Surviving
Corporation until amended in accordance with applicable law.

     1.13 Bylaws.  After the Effective Time, the Bylaws of Mergersub as in
          ------
effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the Bylaws of the
Surviving Corporation until amended or repealed in accordance with the

          ----------------------
directors and officers of Mergersub immediately prior to the Effective Time
shall be the directors and officers of the Surviving Corporation and shall serve
in such capacities until their respective successors are duly elected and
qualified.  The Surviving Corporation may designate such other officers as it
determines.

     1.15 No Further Rights.  As of the Effective Time, the Shareholders shall
          -----------------
cease to have any rights as stockholders of the Company.

          ---------------------

          (a)  Intellectual Property Rights. Schedule 2.10(a) hereto sets forth
               ----------------------------  ----------------
a complete and correct list of (i) all patents (the "Company Patents"),
trademarks, trade names (including all federal and state registrations
pertaining thereto, or applications for such registrations and a description of
the status of such applications), proprietary databases and registered
copyrights owned by the Company (collectively with all unregistered copyrights,
the "Company Proprietary Intellectual Property") and (ii) all patents,
trademarks, trade names, copyrights, technology and processes used by the
Company in its businesses which are material to its business and are used
pursuant to a license or other right granted by a third party, and all
agreements related thereto (collectively, the "Company Licensed Intellectual
Property", and together with the Company Proprietary Intellectual Property
referred to as "the Company Intellectual Property"). Each of the federal, state
and other governmental registrations with any country pertaining to the Company
Proprietary Intellectual Property is valid and in full force and effect. The
Company owns, or has the right to use pursuant to valid and effective
agreements, all the Company Intellectual Property, and the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby will not materially adversely alter or impair
any such rights.  No claims are pending against the Company by any person with
respect to the use of any the Company Intellectual Property or challenging or
questioning the validity or effectiveness of any license or agreement relating
to the same that would be likely to have a Material Adverse Effect on the
Company, and, to the knowledge of the Company and the Founders, the current use
by the Company of the Intellectual Property does not in any material respect
infringe upon the rights of any third party.  Schedule 2.10(a) sets forth a list
                                              ----------------
of all jurisdictions in which the Company is operating under a trade name, and
each jurisdiction in which any such trade name is registered.  No the Company
Patent has been or is now involved in any interference, reissue, reexamination
or opposition proceeding of which the Company has received notice, nor is the
Company aware of any potentially interfering patent or patent application of any
third party.  To the knowledge of the Company, no person or entity is presently
selling or marketing a product which is covered by the Patents, and, to the
knowledge of the Company, the Patents have not been challenged or threatened in
any way. No current or former the Company employee is named as an  inventor on
any pending patent application. All of the Company Patents are currently in
compliance with formal legal requirements (including payment of filing,
examination and maintenance fees and proofs of working or use) and to the
knowledge of the Company, there is no currently existing circumstance which
would render the Company Patents invalid or unenforceable, and they are not
subject to any maintenance fees or taxes or actions falling due within ninety
days after the date of Closing.

the Founders, using any unauthorized copies of any such software programs and,
to the knowledge of the Company, none of the employees, agents or
representatives of the Company have made or are using any such unauthorized
copies, except as would not have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company.

the Shareholder
<PAGE>

Representative has not contested or otherwise notified the indemnified Person of
any objection to the assertion and such Indemnified Person reasonably determines
that it has a valid business reason to fulfill such obligation, then (i) such
Indemnified Person shall be entitled to satisfy such obligation, without prior
notice to or consent from the Shareholder Representative, (ii) such Indemnified
Person may make a Claim for indemnification pursuant to this Article VII in
accordance with the provisions of the Escrow Agreement (if applicable) and this

the Shareholder Representative of the commencement of any action, suit or

the Shareholders of any liability or obligation hereunder except to the extent
of any damage or liability caused by or arising out of such failure.  Within
thirty (30) days after delivery of such notification, the Shareholder
Representative may, upon written notice thereof to the Indemnified Person,
assume control of the defense of such action, suit or proceeding provided the
Shareholder Representative acknowledges in writing to the Indemnified Person
that any damages, fines, costs or other liabilities that may be assessed against
the Indemnified Person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding
constitute Damages for which the Indemnified Person shall be entitled to
indemnification pursuant to this Article VII.  If the Shareholder Representative
does not so assume control of such defense, the Indemnified Person shall control
such defense.  The party not controlling such defense may participate therein at
its own expense; provided that if the Shareholder Representative assumes control
of such defense and the Indemnified Person reasonably concludes that the
indemnifying parties and the Indemnified Person have conflicting interests or
different defenses available with respect to such action, suit or proceeding,
the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Person shall be
considered "Damages" for purposes of this Agreement.  The party controlling such
defense shall keep the other party advised of the status of such action, suit or
proceeding and the defense thereof.  The Indemnified Person shall not agree to
any settlement of such action, suit or proceeding without the prior written
consent of the Shareholder Representative, which shall not be unreasonably
withheld.  The Shareholder Representative shall not agree to any settlement of

purpose valued at the Average Stock Price in accordance with the terms of this

Person pursuant to this Article VII or the Escrow Agreement shall be treated as
a reduction in the Merger Consideration.
<PAGE>

     7.4  Limitation.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, with
          ----------

for which the liability of the Shareholders shall not be limited in amount or to
