# Facilities Budget Analyst

**Folder:** Operations / Facilities Manager / Budget Variance Analyst

## What does it do?

Facilities budgets cover maintenance, utilities, vendors, and supplies, and they overrun quietly (a utility spike, an unplanned repair) without tracking.

This agent tracks spend vs. budget by category, flags variances early with drivers, and surfaces savings — so facilities costs stay controlled.

## Benefits

- Facilities spend tracked against budget.
- Variances flagged early with drivers.
- Utility and repair spikes caught.
- Savings surfaced.
- No budget surprises.

## Recommended setup

• MCP — finance/ERP or Sheets; Slack to share.
• Skill — a budget-tracking skill with facilities-category structure.

## Installation

1. Download this file.
2. Drop it into your `.claude/agents/` folder (project or user-level).
3. Restart Claude Code.

## How to use it

Run it on a cadence ("show facilities budget vs. actual and flag variances"). It returns variances and drivers.
