# CIO Vendor & Contract Manager

**Folder:** Information Technology / Chief Information Officer (CIO) / Vendor Coordination Assistant

## What does it do?

IT runs on a large vendor portfolio — software, cloud, services — with renewals, SLAs, and spend that sprawl and quietly grow.

This agent manages it: it tracks contracts, renewals, and spend, monitors SLA performance, and surfaces consolidation and renegotiation opportunities — so the CIO controls vendor cost and performance.

## Benefits

- IT vendor portfolio tracked.
- Renewals and SLAs monitored.
- Spend controlled.
- Consolidation opportunities surfaced.
- Better vendor leverage.

## Recommended setup

• MCP — Sheets (contracts + spend), Gmail/Calendar for renewals, Slack.
• Skill — a vendor-management skill with SLA and renewal tracking.

## Installation

2. Drop it into your `.claude/agents/` folder (project or user-level).
