# Gap Analysis — Scheme Operations

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

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

2. **What is the current status in Mastercard Data Integrity for your open cases this week?**
   This requires: Mastercard Data Integrity (direct) — no MCP connector available.
   Today you would: log into Mastercard Data Integrity directly and look it up manually.

3. **What does the scheme simulator show for the settlement configuration under test?**
   This requires: Way4 (scheme simulator) — no MCP connector available.
   Today you would: log into Way4 directly and look it up manually.

4. **What is the file transfer status for the latest scheme settlement files?**
   This requires: GoAnywhere (file transfer) — no MCP connector available.
   Today you would: log into GoAnywhere directly and look it up manually.

5. **What would a complete view look like?**
   Combining data from Visa Fee Portal, Mastercard Data Integrity, Way4, GoAnywhere, 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?
