Run Your Entire Business on a Single Platform
NetSuite connects your entire operation, from sales and quoting to field service, billing, and financial reporting, in one system. Sales teams can generate quotes and send contracts for signature, while operations and finance teams gain full visibility into customer accounts, including multiple locations, systems, and recurring services.
Instead of managing separate tools for quoting, service, and accounting, your team works from a single platform that keeps everything connected and up to date.

Built for Inspection-Driven & Recurring Revenue Models
Fire and life safety companies rely on recurring monthly revenue across inspections, monitoring, and service contracts. Kimberlite configures NetSuite to track RMR at a granular level, giving you clear visibility into what is active, what is growing, and what is at risk.
Track RMR in force at any point in time, monitor monthly changes, and break down performance by customer type, service category, or location. With accurate, real-time reporting, your team can make better decisions and confidently report to lenders and stakeholders.

Streamline Field Service, Inspections & Compliance
Coordinate recurring inspections and service work with automated scheduling and ticket generation. Technicians can manage their work in the field, clock in and out, capture notes, complete inspections, and even collect payments, all from a connected system.
Inspection data flows directly into compliance records and billing, reducing manual entry and ensuring nothing falls through the cracks.

Automate Billing, Renewals & Service Contracts
Billing is automatically tied to service activity, contracts, and recurring schedules, ensuring that completed work is invoiced accurately and on time. Manage service agreements, renewals, and contract changes without manual tracking.
By connecting billing to your operational workflows, you reduce missed renewals, improve cash flow, and eliminate revenue leakage.

Why Fire & Life Safety Companies Need a Unified Platform
As fire and life safety companies grow, operational complexity increases across service, billing, and financial reporting. Managing multiple systems makes it difficult to track performance, control costs, and meet reporting requirements.
A unified platform simplifies operations while providing the financial visibility needed to manage job costing, track profitability, and produce accurate financial statements. With everything in one system, your team can move faster and operate with greater confidence.
