# VP BD Pipeline Manager

**Folder:** Strategy & Business Development / VP of Business Development / Pipeline Hygiene Assistant

## What does it do?

A VP of Business Development manages a pipeline of partnership and BD deals that drifts: stalled deals, missing next steps, unrealistic timelines.

This agent keeps it clean: it audits deals for staleness, missing next steps, and unrealistic dates, flags stalled deals, and gives an honest pipeline read — so BD forecasting is trustworthy.
