Predictika · Pharma primary-packaging orders
An AI sales agent prepares an order for pharmaceutical primary packaging: prefillable syringes, cartridges or ready-to-use vials, a container size, a pack format and closure, the drug's profile and storage temperature, the number of packs, a discount, and the container count and net total it states. Before it goes out, the agent sends it to Predictika, which checks it against a declarative model of the product line and returns a verdict and every reason.
This validator models orders for these eleven SCHOTT Pharma packaging products, not just the scenarios shown below.
Any order for these products that touches these rules is in scope — not only the scenarios pictured here. Not covered: tubing, ampoules, bulk vials and services. Public versus modeled: the product names and families, the syringe, cartridge and vial size ranges and the main format and storage facts follow SCHOTT Pharma's public pages; the compatibility rules by drug profile, the units per pack, the discount and order-size thresholds and the dollar amounts (except the few US shop “from” prices on the adaptiQ and EVERIC lines) are modeled by Predictika and are not SCHOTT prices or terms. No price list is shown.

What this means
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 caught | Typical rules-based CPQ | Predictika |
|---|---|---|
| A product that must fit the drug it will hold | Only with care Silicone-sensitive, freeze-dried, alkaline and frozen drugs each need a different container, so every drug profile needs its own rule tied to the product chosen. | The product and the drug profile are fields of one order and are checked together on every call. |
| Sizes, formats and closures that depend on the product | Only with care Each product line has its own sizes, pack formats and closures, so the options need a table per product and a rule that reads it. | The product, size, format and closure are checked together on every call. |
| Stated container and net totals that must equal the computed ones | Only with workarounds Both totals are derived from packs, units per pack, price and discount; checking stated figures against them takes extra formulas that interact with the rest of the rules. | The stated totals are fields in the request and are compared with the computed ones. |
| Orders that should go to a person rather than be blocked | Only with care Approval paths for frozen storage, large orders and discounts sit beside separate hard limits, and the two must not overlap. | Blocks and approvals come back together; approval-only orders are not blocked. |
| Every problem returned in one answer | Only 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. |
Every rule is checked on every call, in any order the choices arrive; one problem never hides another. Blocking findings stop the quote; approval findings need a person to sign off; everything else is computed.
| 1 | A container size of 4,000 microlitres is not offered for this product in the modeled range. |
| 2 | A container size of 3,000 microlitres is not offered for this product in the modeled range. |
| 3 | The 2.25 mL syriQ BioPure silicone-free syringe is offered on request; a person should confirm availability. |
| 4 | The drug is silicone sensitive; use the syriQ BioPure silicone-free syringe, not a standard siliconized syringe. |
| 5 | SyriQ BioPure syringes are supplied with a staked needle; the quote has none. |
| 6 | The quote asks for a staked needle; only the syriQ BioPure syringes are offered with one. |
| 7 | The closure on the quote is not offered for this product; syriQ uses a rigid cap (SRC) or OVS, syriQ BioPure uses a rigid needle shield (RNS), cartridges and vials have no closure line here. |
| 8 | The pack format on the quote is not offered for this product; syringes and cartridges come in nest or tub, adaptiQ nest vials in cup nest, trays in tray. |
| 9 | The cartridge size is 10,000 microlitres; sizes over 5 mL are large-volume cartridges, and a person should confirm the product and the autoinjector fit. |
| 10 | A container size of 20,000 microlitres is not offered for this product in the modeled range. |
| 11 | The cartridge size is 20,000 microlitres; sizes over 5 mL are large-volume cartridges, and a person should confirm the product and the autoinjector fit. |
| 12 | A freeze-dried drug is filled in a vial; syringes and cartridges are not offered for lyophilization. |
| 13 | A container size of 50,000 microlitres is not offered for this product in the modeled range. |
| 14 | A container size of 6,000 microlitres is not offered for this product in the modeled range. |
| 15 | The drug is freeze dried and the vial is not EVERIC lyo, the coating made for lyophilization; a person should confirm the choice. |
| 16 | The drug is alkaline (high pH) and the container is not EVERIC care, the barrier for alkaline solutions; a person should confirm leachables. |
| 17 | EVERIC plus is the barrier for acidic solutions; an alkaline (high pH) drug needs EVERIC care. |
| 18 | The quote stores the filled container at -60 C; container closure integrity for syringes and cartridges is shown to minus 50 C, so a person should confirm. |
| 19 | The quote has 0 packs; an order needs at least 1 pack. |
| 20 | The quote has 201 packs; orders over 200 packs go to a person for supply confirmation. |
| 21 | The quote gives a discount of 561 USD on a list total of 5,600 USD, which is over 10 percent and needs sales management approval. |
| 22 | The quote gives a discount of 1,120 USD on a list total of 5,600 USD, which is over 10 percent and needs sales management approval. |
| 23 | The quote gives a discount of 1,121 USD on a list total of 5,600 USD, which is over 20 percent. |
| 24 | The quote states 900 containers in total; the packs ordered give 1,000. |
| 25 | The quote states a net total of 5,600 USD; list price less discount gives 5,040 USD. |
