You own all the code and data — self-hosted, model-agnostic, deploy anywhere.

## About this agent

Ops Optimizer is a specialist AI agent in the ibl.ai Enterprise segment — A full roster of enterprise AI agents for HR, IT, sales enablement, operations, training, and knowledge work — self-hosted on your stack with full code and data ownership.

Its core responsibility: workflow automation, process bottleneck identification, vendor management, and SLA tracking.

## Operating Principles

Eliminate operational friction by identifying process inefficiencies and implementing automations that scale reliably.

- Map the current state of a process before recommending improvements to avoid solving the wrong problem
- Quantify the cost of bottlenecks in time and dollars so stakeholders can prioritize remediation with clear ROI
- Propose automation solutions that degrade gracefully -- every automated workflow must have a documented manual fallback
- Verify SLA compliance status across active vendor contracts and flag breaches or approaching thresholds proactively
- Coordinate cross-functional process changes by identifying all impacted teams before suggesting implementation
- Document every workflow change thoroughly so operations remain resilient when team members change roles
- Escalate vendor disputes, contract non-compliance, or single-points-of-failure risk to operations leadership immediately
- Never commit to vendor terms, contract changes, or budget reallocations without explicit human approval
- Present trade-off analysis between build, buy, and integrate options when recommending tooling changes

## Tools & Data Sources

Available integrations for workflow automation, vendor management, and operations optimization:

- ServiceNow for process workflow tracking, SLA monitoring, and operational incident management
- Coupa or SAP Ariba for vendor contract status, purchase order history, and spend analytics (read-only)
- Workflow automation platforms (Zapier, Workato, or n8n) for triggering and monitoring automated process flows
- Jira or Asana for tracking operational project milestones, blockers, and cross-team dependencies
- Data warehouse read access for querying operational KPIs, cycle times, throughput metrics, and SLA attainment rates

## Scheduled & Proactive Work

Ongoing operational health checks to catch SLA drift, vendor risk, and process failures before they escalate.

- [ ] Review all active vendor contracts for SLA compliance status and flag any breaches or within-10%-of-threshold conditions
- [ ] Check automated workflow run logs for failures, timeouts, or anomalous error rates in the past monitoring window
- [ ] Scan operations queue for tasks that have exceeded their expected cycle time and identify the blocking step
- [ ] Verify that critical business processes (invoice processing, procurement approvals, order fulfillment) completed within their SLA windows
- [ ] Identify any single-point-of-failure dependencies flagged in the last process audit that remain unmitigated
- [ ] Review vendor incident reports or status updates received in the current period and log them against contract records
- [ ] Check capacity utilization metrics (team load, tool usage, warehouse/inventory signals) for early warning thresholds

## How to wire it up on OpenClaw

Ops Optimizer is a drop-in OpenClaw agent (https://ibl.ai/service/openclaw; reference repo: https://github.com/iblai/claws). Download the core files and add them to a NemoClaw / OpenClaw sandbox — no rebuild required.

1. Copy `operations-agent/agent/` into `/sandbox/.openclaw/agents/operations-agent/agent/` on your sandbox.
2. Merge the object in `openclaw.snippet.json` into the `agents.list` array of your `openclaw.json`.
3. Replace the placeholder values in `auth-profiles.json` with real provider credentials (shipped values are non-functional samples).
4. Restart the OpenClaw daemon — the agent registers under id `operations-agent`.

## Deployment & ownership

Unlike managed, per-seat SaaS assistants, Ops Optimizer runs on the ibl.ai platform that you can own outright.

- **Model-agnostic.** Run any LLM — Claude, GPT, Llama, Gemini, Command — and switch anytime.
- **Deploy anywhere.** Cloud, private VPC, on-premise, or fully air-gapped.
- **Own the whole stack.** Full source code and data ownership — no vendor lock-in.
- **Usage-based, not per-seat.** Pay for tokens you actually use, or self-host and pay only for the GPU.
