Predictika · Care and hospital beds
An AI sales agent prepares an order for height-adjustable care beds for a care home: the bed variant, mattress base width, safety sides, the height range, backrest angle and patient weight the customer needs, and the external width, safety side height and safe working load it states for the beds. Before it goes out, the agent sends it to Predictika, which checks it against a declarative model of the technical data Stiegelmeyer publishes for the Libra care bed and returns a verdict, every reason and the figures it computed.
This validator models Libra care bed orders for three variants (Libra Standard, Libra movo and Libra partner), based on the technical data on Stiegelmeyer's public Libra product page, not just the scenarios shown below.
Any Libra Standard, movo or partner order that touches these rules is in scope — not only the scenarios pictured here. Not covered: prices (Stiegelmeyer does not publish a price list, so this page shows no price build-up), the Libra floor access Plus variant, other Stiegelmeyer bed families, accessories and colors, and mattresses. Assumptions: the product page's availability legend did not survive in the text read, so which options are standard or optional per variant is not modeled; the Vario Safe point for the split safety side is read from the technical table row "split safety side with Vario Safe", so it is an approval, not a block.

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 |
|---|---|---|
| Variant limits: width options, height range and safe working load differ by variant | Only with care Each variant has its own height range and load, and the partner variant changes which widths and safety sides are offered. A rules-based CPQ needs a rule set per variant that has to be kept in step with the technical data. | The variant, base width and safety side arrive in one request and every limit is looked up and checked together. |
| Safety sides that one variant does not take | Only with workarounds The restriction depends on the variant on one line and the safety side on another, so it needs a cross-line rule that interacts with the width and attachment rules. | The variant and every item are in one request and the restriction is checked with the rest. |
| Figures the order states: external width, safety side height, safe working load | Only with care Each stated figure is a free-entry value derived from the variant, the base and the safety side, so a rule has to recompute it and compare. | The stated figures are fields in the request, compared with the computed ones on every call. |
| Patient weight with a stated range, not a single limit | Only with care A hard limit is easy; a band that blocks above one weight and sends the order to a person inside it needs a separate approval rule. | Block and approval bands are both checked, and the person who confirms sees the reason. |
| 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 person 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 | Libra partner has two mattress bases of 90 cm each; a width of 100 cm is not offered. |
| 2 | A mattress base width of 95 cm is not offered; the Libra mattress base is 90 or 100 cm wide. |
| 3 | Full-length and combined safety sides are not available on Libra partner; only the split safety side is. |
| 4 | The technical table lists the split safety side with the Vario Safe attachment system and the quote does not include Vario Safe, so a person should confirm how the split safety side is attached. |
| 5 | The quote asks for a bed extension of 21 cm; the Libra bed extends by up to 20 cm. |
| 6 | The customer needs a mattress base height down to 24 cm; this variant goes down to approximately 25 cm. |
| 7 | The customer needs a mattress base height up to 81 cm; this variant goes up to approximately 80 cm. |
| 8 | The customer needs a mattress base height down to 27 cm; this variant goes down to approximately 28 cm. |
| 9 | The quote asks for a backrest angle of 71 degrees; the Libra backrest goes up to 70 degrees. |
| 10 | The quote asks for a Trendelenburg or reverse tilt of 13 degrees; the Libra tilts up to 12 degrees. |
| 11 | The patient weighs 211 kg; the maximum patient weight for the Libra is approximately 185 to 210 kg. |
| 12 | The patient weighs 210 kg; Stiegelmeyer gives the maximum patient weight as approximately 185 to 210 kg, so a person should confirm it for this bed. |
| 13 | The quote states an external width of 1,040 mm; the selected variant and mattress base give 1,003 mm. |
| 14 | The quote states a safety side protective height of 405 mm; the selected safety side gives 410 mm. |
| 15 | The quote states a safe working load of 450 kg; the product page gives 225 kg (for each mattress base) for the selected variant. |
| 16 | The quote has 0 beds; at least 1 is needed. |
