| 37 | +## Description ℹ️ |
| 38 | + |
| 39 | +This prompt helps IT managers and infrastructure teams track the lifecycle of software acquisition requests across email and Teams communications. It automatically identifies software titles mentioned in the past 12 months, extracts the date of first request, summarizes current approval status, flags outstanding tasks or concerns, and highlights requests involving key contacts (e.g., [email protected] or [email protected]). It also assesses each software’s security maturity, checks for SOC reports, and verifies AI-related data privacy documentation. The output is a structured report grouped by software title, designed to run on a recurring schedule (e.g., every Monday and Wednesday) to keep stakeholders informed and aligned. |
