About The Customer
Veracyte is a pioneering genomic diagnostics company that provides trustworthy and actionable answers to improve patient care. The company has created seven genomic tests that transform the diagnosis of thyroid cancer, lung cancer, and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Veracyte's customers include physicians and healthcare specialists. As they scaled, Veracyte grew their sales team over five times in size to support multiple product launches and market demand. While two sales trainings or onboardings a year used to be enough, the company held four sales training classes in the first half of the year to meet the need of roughly 40 new sales hires.
The Challenge
Veracyte, a genomic diagnostics company, faced challenges in rapidly rolling out detailed technical knowledge and sharp messaging for multiple product launches. The company's sales team was growing rapidly, requiring targeted content for both new hires and ongoing content for the existing sales team. The offline training content was hard to update and lacked a mechanism to track review, retention, and fluency across a growing team with diverse tenure. As Veracyte scaled, they grew their sales team over five times in size to support multiple product launches and market demand. The company held four sales training classes in the first half of the year to meet the need of roughly 40 new sales hires. The traditional manual management of sales onboarding and ongoing training with PowerPoint presentations and folders filled with technical information was no longer practical to deliver training effectively.
The Solution
Veracyte decided to digitize their sales readiness programs for training. They created bite-sized, focused learning programs available in various formats – including video and audio – for increased relevance, convenience, and engagement. The learning was reinforced with quizzes and assessments. The sales team could access enablement programs and content on mobile – anytime, anywhere. The readiness modules included video and audio programs from subject matter experts, best practice examples of how core messages and probing questions can be delivered, and the ability for field sales to refer back to any material whenever and wherever there is a need. MindTickle allowed Veracyte to focus their readiness programs so individuals only see the modules they need.

Hospital Inventory Management
The hospital supply chain team is responsible for ensuring that the right medical supplies are readily available to clinicians when and where needed, and to do so in the most efficient manner possible. However, many of the systems and processes in use at the cancer center for supply chain management were not best suited to support these goals. Barcoding technology, a commonly used method for inventory management of medical supplies, is labor intensive, time consuming, does not provide real-time visibility into inventory levels and can be prone to error. Consequently, the lack of accurate and real-time visibility into inventory levels across multiple supply rooms in multiple hospital facilities creates additional inefficiency in the system causing over-ordering, hoarding, and wasted supplies. Other sources of waste and cost were also identified as candidates for improvement. Existing systems and processes did not provide adequate security for high-cost inventory within the hospital, which was another driver of cost. A lack of visibility into expiration dates for supplies resulted in supplies being wasted due to past expiry dates. Storage of supplies was also a key consideration given the location of the cancer center’s facilities in a dense urban setting, where space is always at a premium. In order to address the challenges outlined above, the hospital sought a solution that would provide real-time inventory information with high levels of accuracy, reduce the level of manual effort required and enable data driven decision making to ensure that the right supplies were readily available to clinicians in the right location at the right time.

Driving Digital Transformations for Vitro Diagnostic Medical Devices
Diagnostic devices play a vital role in helping to improve healthcare delivery. In fact, an estimated 60 percent of the world’s medical decisions are made with support from in vitrodiagnostics (IVD) solutions, such as those provided by Roche Diagnostics, an industry leader. As the demand for medical diagnostic services grows rapidly in hospitals and clinics across China, so does the market for IVD solutions. In addition, the typically high cost of these diagnostic devices means that comprehensive post-sales services are needed. Wanteed to improve three portions of thr IVD:1. Remotely monitor and manage IVD devices as fixed assets.2. Optimizing device availability with predictive maintenance.3. Recommending the best IVD solution for a customer’s needs.

Harnessing real-time data to give a holistic picture of patient health
Every day, vast quantities of data are collected about patients as they pass through health service organizations—from operational data such as treatment history and medications to physiological data captured by medical devices. The insights hidden within this treasure trove of data can be used to support more personalized treatments, more accurate diagnosis and more advanced preparative care. But since the information is generated faster than most organizations can consume it, unlocking the power of this big data can be a struggle. This type of predictive approach not only improves patient care—it also helps to reduce costs, because in the healthcare industry, prevention is almost always more cost-effective than treatment. However, collecting, analyzing and presenting these data-streams in a way that clinicians can easily understand can pose a significant technical challenge.
