The situation

A medical equipment manufacturer had tracked representative activity without connecting it to institutional purchasing stages.

The work focused on accepted institutional equipment orders, qualified equipment evaluations, median evaluation-to-order time. Institutional purchasing and representative contribution were distinct from clinical performance. Committee attendance was not counted as a purchase.

Which activity helped accepted institutional equipment orders, and what happened at the next decision?

The commercial question

What we did

Three moves, in order.

  • Sharpen

    Define the commercial outcome

    The priority was accepted institutional equipment orders. The team used qualified equipment evaluations and median evaluation-to-order time to assess the next stages, with a clear distinction between activity and accepted outcomes.

  • Author / Architect

    Build the path to the next decision

    We organized approved product evidence, equipped representatives and clarified how evaluation requests returned to the account team.

  • Generate / Gain

    Review progress against consistent measures

    The team compared accepted institutional equipment orders, qualified equipment evaluations, median evaluation-to-order time across the agreed reporting periods. Institutional purchasing and representative contribution were distinct from clinical performance. Committee attendance was not counted as a purchase.

What changed

Accepted institutional equipment orders moved from 6 to 10. Qualified equipment evaluations moved from 24 to 32. Median evaluation-to-order time moved from 180 days to 150 days.

Institutional purchasing and representative contribution were distinct from clinical performance. Committee attendance was not counted as a purchase.

We calculated relative changes from the baseline and comparison values and reported conversion or retention changes in percentage points. We rounded displayed changes to one decimal place where needed. The figures did not establish that marketing caused the outcome.

Measurement window: Two comparable nine-month equipment purchasing cohorts.
