An internal marketplace for surplus assets.Recover costs. Waste less.

Built for

The platform

One surplus asset,
two very different endings

MatX is an internal marketplace for the assets your organisation already owns. Instead of relying on the right person seeing an email, surplus is visible to all the teams you choose the moment it is listed, claimed with proper governance, and counted in your sustainability numbers.

How it works

What the MatX workflow looks like

1

List surplus assets

Staff list surplus items with photos, details, and any compliance metadata your organisation requires. Custom fields ensure the right information is captured before an asset enters the disposal process.

2

Choose who sees your listings, and when

Listings pass through exchanges sequentially, letting you control which audiences see a listing and for how long. Use it to reach internal departments, partner organisations, the public, or any combination. The listing automatically moves through exchanges once configured, so assets always reach the right people and follow your processes reliably.

3

Report on impact

Every transaction is tracked. Cost savings, landfill diversion, and CO₂ avoided are calculated automatically and exportable for sustainability reporting and asset disposal compliance.

An exchange is an audience for your listings: a division, a group of partner organisations, or the public marketplace. Publish a listing to any combination of exchanges, each with its own visibility window, and it cascades outward on schedule while stock remains.

Members only see what they should

A listing is visible only to members of its exchanges, and only while that exchange’s window is open.

The cascade runs itself

Windows open and close on schedule, and quantities update automatically as items are claimed. Listings activate, move on and expire without anyone re-posting them.

A different price for each audience

Free internal transfer between your own teams, cost recovery when partners or public buyers step in.

Features

Asset disposal management software with enterprise governance

Approval workflows that follow your authority structure

Listings and disposals are routed to the right approver automatically based on your financial delegation, manager hierarchy, or specialist reviewers.

SSO with Microsoft Entra ID

Staff sign in with their existing Microsoft 365 credentials. Roles, manager hierarchy, and approval permissions sync from your Active Directory automatically.

Full audit trail for every asset

Every action is logged immutably, from listing creation through approval, negotiation, transaction, and collection. Exportable for compliance and disposal audits.

Custom compliance fields per asset type

Define required metadata by category: patient data clearance, temperature control, security classification. Fields are enforced before an asset can be listed for internal reuse or external disposal.

Sustainability reporting with real data

Cost savings, landfill diversion, and carbon avoided. Tracked per transaction, filterable by date and exchange, exportable as CSV and PDF for sustainability and asset management reporting.

Internal and public exchanges with cascade

Create internal exchanges for interdepartmental redistribution, invite partners to shared exchanges, and cascade items to the public marketplace, all with configurable timing.

Governance

Compliance is built into the flow, not bolted on

Required fields, delegated approvals and a complete history are enforced by the platform itself, so your disposal policy is followed by default, not by reminder emails.

Custom fields by asset type

Define the metadata each category must carry, from security classifications to sanitisation certificates. Listings cannot be submitted without them.

Approvals that follow your delegations

Rules match on value, category or quantity and route each listing to the right approvers automatically. Reviews run in parallel, so sign-off never queues.

An audit trail you can hand to auditors

Who listed it, who approved it, when it went live: every event is recorded immutably and exportable.

Case study

Department of Transport WA recovered over $300,000 through internal asset redistribution on MatX

DoT WA adopted MatX in 2019 to manage surplus asset disposal and interdepartmental reuse across their $14B road and rail portfolio. In Q4 2024, the MELconnx Morley Ellenbrook Line Alliance recovered over $300,000, returning more than 10x the platform’s cost.

Adopting the software was the first step to testing and improving their asset disposal hierarchy, updating commercial processes, and capturing environmental data in real time.
