# Budget Savings Hunter

**Folder:** Finance / Budget Manager / Cost Savings Analyst

## What does it do?

A Budget Manager is positioned to spot savings — underused budget, wasteful spend, duplication — but surfacing it across departments takes digging.

This agent hunts: it analyzes spend for waste, duplication, and reallocation opportunities, quantifies each, and ranks them — so savings targets are met and budget moves to where it matters.

## Benefits

- Underspend and waste surfaced across the budget.
- Reallocation opportunities quantified.
- Ranked by savings vs. effort.
- Savings targets met with evidence.
- Budget moved to where it matters.

## Recommended setup

• MCP — ERP/GL spend data via Sheets; Slack to share.
• Skill — a savings skill with an ROI/effort matrix.
