Give service teams visibility of tools, fleet and materials
Mutu helps commercial services teams manage tools, vehicles, materials and shared resources across jobs, crews and field teams from one live platform. Staff can search what is available, book the equipment they need, check fleet allocation, reuse materials and report on savings before buying, hiring or ordering more.

Like many trade businesses, Kinetic Electrical faced growing pressure around the cost and complexity of managing tools and equipment across multiple crews and sites. Higher hire costs, duplicate purchases and lost time chasing gear made it clear something needed to change — so they brought in Mutu.
Kinetic now manages more than 260 pieces of equipment across 25 active sites. Staff can find what they need quickly, while the Maintenance Schedule keeps gear safe and compliant. The team has also reallocated more than $20,000 worth of materials between sites and their storeroom, diverting over 700kg from landfill.
Results include over $20,000 saved in procurement, reduced equipment hire and duplicate purchases, and improved visibility across projects.
"Mutu’s really changed how we look at leftover materials on jobs, especially with things like cabling. On commercial jobs, we often end up with half spools left over – still perfectly usable, but they’d get buried in a container or forgotten in storage. Now the team can quickly jump on Mutu and see what’s already in the business before ordering more."

See how it works in just 20 mins, and what your business already owns before buying or hiring more.
Field teams need visibility across jobs, vehicles and crews.
When tools, vehicles and materials are spread across jobs and managed by different teams, it becomes difficult to know what is available, what is already allocated and what needs to be purchased. Mutu gives commercial services teams one searchable view of resources across the business, helping staff find what exists before more money is spent.
Small resource gaps can create repeated unnecessary spend.
Commercial services teams often rebuy tools, parts and materials because the existing stock is sitting with another crew, in another vehicle or at another job. Mutu gives staff instant access to the resources already available across the business, helping reduce duplicate purchases, improve accountability and make better use of the tools, fleet and materials already owned.
