Predictika · Hemostasis analyzer orders

An AI sales agent's TEG 6s order, checked before it goes out

An AI sales agent prepares an order for a hospital that wants Haemonetics TEG 6s hemostasis analyzers with cartridges, quality-control reagents, TEG Manager software and accessories. Before the order goes out, the agent sends it to Predictika, which checks it against a declarative model of the product line and returns a verdict, every reason and the order total it computed.

Scope: Haemonetics TEG 6s analyzers with Global Hemostasis and PlateletMapping cartridges, Level 1 and Level 2 QC, TEG Manager licenses, accessories and service plans. See everything this validator covers

This validator models TEG 6s system orders, not just the scenarios shown below.

  • Clinical-use limits — adult patients only, citrated whole-blood samples, an analyzer operating temperature of 10 to 32 C, and the hemodilution limits of the Global Hemostasis assays, which follow the public Haemonetics pages and the FDA 510(k) record.
  • Order structure — cartridges need an analyzer, an analyzer needs both QC levels, printer paper needs a printer, TEG Manager licenses cannot exceed the analyzer count, and the planned test volume has to fit the analyzer capacity.
  • Commercial limits and total — discount approval and block thresholds, volume review for large orders, and the stated order total against the total computed from the modeled prices.

Any TEG 6s order that touches these rules is in scope — not only the scenarios pictured here. Not covered: other Haemonetics products, negotiated contract pricing, taxes and shipping. Product names and clinical-use limits follow public Haemonetics sources; prices, pack sizes, the capacity figure and the discount and volume thresholds are modeled from comparable products and are not published by Haemonetics.

Where rules-based CPQ gets it wrong

Click to expand

Our assessment of what a typical rules-based CPQ (product rules, price rules and validation rules, as in Salesforce CPQ) does with the same cases. It is a judgment about effort and reliability, not a claim that nothing can be built.

What the validator caughtTypical rules-based CPQPredictika
Clinical limits that depend on the cartridge typeOnly with care
The hemodilution limit applies only when Global Hemostasis cartridges are on the order, so each limit needs a rule that first looks at the cartridge mix.
The cartridge mix and the hemodilution percentage are in one request and checked together on every call.
Pairing rules such as two QC levels per analyzerOnly with care
Each pairing needs its own rule that counts one item against another, and the rule list grows with every accessory.
All quantities are in one request and compared on every call.
Planned test volume against analyzer capacityOnly with care
Capacity depends on how many analyzers are ordered, so a volume rule has to be recomputed whenever the analyzer count changes.
The test volume and the analyzer count are fields of the request and are compared on every call.
A stated total that must match the computed totalOnly with workarounds
The total is built from several lines and a discount, so a separate rule is needed to recompute it and compare it with the stated figure.
The stated total is a field of the request and is compared with the computed total on every call.
Every problem returned in one answerOnly with workarounds
Rules tend to fire as the order is saved or a step is completed, so a rep often fixes one error and meets the next.
All findings come back together, whatever order the choices arrived in.

What this validator catches: findings from its test cases

Every rule is checked on every call, in any order the choices arrive; one problem never hides another. Blocking findings stop the order; approval findings need a person to sign off; everything else is computed.

1The TEG 6s is cleared for adult patients (18 and older); this order is for pediatric use.
2The TEG 6s citrated cartridges need venous whole blood in a 3.2% sodium citrate tube; the order plans another sample type.
35 cartridge box(es) are ordered but the order has no TEG 6s analyzer.
4The room temperature of 9 C is outside the analyzer operating range of 10 to 32 C.
5The room temperature of 33 C is outside the analyzer operating range of 10 to 32 C.
6An analyzer needs both Level 1 and Level 2 cartridge reagent QC on the order.
7Printer paper is ordered but the order has no USB printer.
83 TEG Manager licenses are ordered for 2 analyzer(s); one license per analyzer at most.
9The site plans 1,201 tests a month; the analyzers on the order handle 1,200.
10Hemodilution of 31 percent is above 30 percent, where the rapid assay in the Global Hemostasis cartridges can read unreliably; a clinician should confirm.
11Hemodilution of 40 percent is above 30 percent, where the rapid assay in the Global Hemostasis cartridges can read unreliably; a clinician should confirm.
12Hemodilution of 41 percent is above the 40 percent limit for the functional fibrinogen assay in the Global Hemostasis cartridges.
13A discount of 16 percent is above the 15 percent a sales rep can give.
14A discount of 30 percent is above the 15 percent a sales rep can give.
15A discount of 31 percent is above the 30 percent limit.
16An order of 10 analyzers is a volume deal that sales management reviews.
17The order states a total of 7,831,890 cents; the modeled prices give 7,831,990 cents.
18The order states a total of 7,831,991 cents; the modeled prices give 7,831,990 cents.
19Hemodilution of 45 percent is above the 40 percent limit for the functional fibrinogen assay in the Global Hemostasis cartridges.
20Hemodilution of 35 percent is above 30 percent, where the rapid assay in the Global Hemostasis cartridges can read unreliably; a clinician should confirm.
21A discount of 20 percent is above the 15 percent a sales rep can give.
22An order of 12 analyzers is a volume deal that sales management reviews.
23The order states a total of 1 cents; the modeled prices give 7,831,990 cents.

Narration transcript

The text of the narrated walkthrough, step by step.

  1. Welcome to a demo of Predictika's Validator. An AI sales agent prepares an order for a hospital that wants Haemonetics TEG 6s hemostasis analyzers with cartridges, quality-control reagents, TEG Manager software and accessories. Before the order goes out, the agent sends it to Predictika, which checks it against a declarative model of the product line and returns a verdict, every reason and the order total it computed.
  2. I will start with the first request by the agent.
  3. The agent says. Please order 2 TEG 6s analyzers, 3 boxes of Global Hemostasis cartridges, 1 box of Global Hemostasis HN cartridges, 1 box of PlateletMapping ADP and AA cartridges. It is ready to send. The rest of the request is on screen.
  4. Before it goes out, the agent calls the validator.
  5. Blocked, with five findings, all in one answer. The TEG 6s is cleared for adult patients (18 and older); this order is for pediatric use. The TEG 6s citrated cartridges need venous whole blood in a 3.2% sodium citrate tube; the order plans another sample type. An analyzer needs both Level 1 and Level 2 cartridge reagent QC on the order. The other two are on screen.
  6. The validator returned five blocking findings in one answer. A check that reads one field at a time would pass most of this; it shows only when the choices in the order are checked against each other.
  7. What this shows: for pairing rules such as two QC levels per analyzer, a rules-based CPQ is error-prone for this.
  8. Now the agent resubmits.
  9. The corrected request. It changes the Level 2 QC to 1, the USB printers to 1, the patient population to adult, the sample type to citrated, the discount to 12 percent and the order total stated on the order to 7,254,896 cents.
  10. It calls the validator again.
  11. This time the validator clears it.
  12. All five earlier findings are cleared.
  13. Five problems caught in one call, fixed in one pass, and a clean order. That is the value of Predictika's validator: catching mistakes before they reach the customer. Now you can try the other scenarios yourself.
