# Gap Analysis — Partnerships

These 5 questions CANNOT be answered from your Jira export, Confluence extract, and Referral Factory export alone. They require access to systems without MCP connectors.

1. **What does your Partnerships dashboard show for this week's KPIs?**
   This requires: Tableau (commission data) — no MCP connector available.
   Today you would: log into Tableau directly and look it up manually.

2. **What do the general ledger entries show for the reconciliation variances you identified?**
   This requires: SAP (vendor payments) — no MCP connector available.
   Today you would: log into SAP directly and look it up manually.

3. **What is the current status in Partner Portal for your open cases this week?**
   This requires: Partner Portal (portal access) — no MCP connector available.
   Today you would: log into Partner Portal directly and look it up manually.

4. **What is the current deal stage and last activity for the leads in your queue?**
   This requires: HubSpot (deal attribution) — no MCP connector available.
   Today you would: log into HubSpot directly and look it up manually.

5. **What would a complete view look like?**
   Combining data from Tableau, SAP, Partner Portal, HubSpot, plus your existing 3 sources, would give you a 360° view. Which of these gaps causes the most pain in your daily work?

**Reflection:** The value of MCP is that it eliminates manual lookups for connected systems. The gap systems listed above represent the manual work that remains. Which one would save you the most time if connected?
