Internet/DIA, MPLS, SD-WAN/SASE180 daysCarrier install intervals for new circuits often run months.
Cloud/IaaS, Colocation180 daysMigration planning and commit terms need runway.
UCaaS/phones, Contact center150 daysNumber porting, call flows, and user training.
MDR/SOC, Identity/IAM120 daysOnboarding, log sources, and overlap to avoid a coverage gap.
Email security, Backup & DR, Copier/print, Other90 daysFaster to switch; still needs quotes and a pilot.
Auto-renewing contract+60 daysNotice windows are often 30 to 90 days before the end date.

"Start evaluating by" = contract end date minus lead time. Status: Overdue if that date has passed, Start now if it is within 60 days, On deck within 180 days, otherwise Clear.
