ACCOUNT PLANNING MODULE

Account Planning, built for the field.

Objectives. Priorities. Activities. Tasked to the right people, on a deadline.

The account planning module within the Tika CRM platform — a configurable framework that turns strategy into trackable work across IDNs, health systems, hospitals, payers, ASCs, and clinics. Plan once, task explicitly, execute from the same record on web and iPad.

THE CHALLENGE

A plan without owners is a wishlist.

Strategy fits on a slide. Execution doesn't. Commercial account plans lose momentum where the activities live — handoffs blur across reps, RMs, MSLs, and access teams. TikaAccounts is the layer between strategy and the field: every objective drills into priorities, every priority into activities, and every activity has an owner, a deadline, and a status the whole team can see.

TWO PLANNING FRAMEWORKS

Define the plan. Work it from every facility.

Framework 1 defines what the team is driving toward — objectives, priorities, activities, owners, due dates. Framework 2 is the execution lens that brings those activities into the rep's daily view at each individual facility. Customers deploy one or both. Both share the same configuration model — libraries, statuses, attributes, and field labels are tenant-managed without code changes.

Strategic planning at the integrated network level

TikaAccounts structures the account planning process around a clear hierarchy: every objective has priorities, every priority has activities, and every activity has owners, due dates, and required-or-optional flags — so the plan translates directly into tasked, trackable work.

STEP 1
Objectives

The strategic outcomes the account team is driving toward

STEP 2
Priorities

Each objective has its own priorities

STEP 3

Each priority has assignable activities

Objectives

The strategic outcomes the team is driving toward at this account. Pulled from a curated, tenant-managed library so reps select from your playbook — not a free-text field.

Priorities under each objective

The specific levers that advance the objective at this account. Configured per brand and per therapeutic area.

Activities under each priority

The concrete work that moves the priority forward. Activities are the unit of execution.

Assignable to one or more people

Every activity can be tasked to a single owner or a team. Activities show up on the assignee's worklist alongside their other commitments.

Required or optional, with due dates

Flag activities as required or optional, and require completion by a pre-set date. Plans surface what's due, what's overdue, and what's done.

Framework 1 · Account context

Plus per-account components captured alongside the plan

The objective → priority → activity hierarchy doesn't sit in isolation. For each account, the module captures the context that makes the plan executable.

Key Attributes

The institutional context that frames every planning decision at this account.

ParentWebsiteSegmentClaims Analyses
Key Contacts

The decision-makers and influencers tied to this account — captured with role, department, and influence level so the right activity gets tasked to the right relationship owner.

Key Components of Research

Research completion captured per dimension, so the team knows what's done before picking the next priority.

FRAMEWORK 2
Facility Account Plan

Tactical execution at the hospital, ASC, clinic, or site level

Where Framework 1 defines the plan, Framework 2 is the lens reps work it through. Each individual hospital, ASC, clinic, or payer site rolls up the activities tasked to that facility — with readiness, stakeholders, embedded sales, and recent engagement on the same record.

Account list

Filtered by tier, type, segment, state, territory, and any number of tenant-defined custom attributes. KPI tiles above the list surface what's overdue, what's due this week, and where coverage is missing.

Readiness

Access Wins per product, formulary status per product, and configurable clinical & access attributes drive a real readiness picture instead of a gut call.

Stakeholders

Three distinct layers so clinical, administrative, and office relationships stay separate: Key Stakeholders (with influence level and advocacy potential), Contacts (department leads), and Staff Directory (office-level contacts).

Activities tasked to this facility

Every activity defined in Framework 1 appears here on the record it belongs to, with its owner, due date, required-or-optional flag, and current status. The rep updates the activity in context and the plan stays alive.

PAYER ACCOUNT PLAN

Same framework. Tuned for the payer audience.

Payers don't behave like hospitals — the stakeholders are different, the levers are different, the cycle is longer. TikaAccounts applies the same Objectives → Priorities → Activities hierarchy to the payer side, with libraries and labels tailored to medical directors, formulary committees, P&T, account directors, and pharmacy benefit managers.

What's purpose-built for the payer side

Split list views

IDN plans and Payer plans appear on dedicated tabs so RMs see payer momentum independent of system momentum — with separate counts and inline status sweeps.

Linked-Payer ↔ IDN bridge

Every payer plan is one click from the IDNs it influences, and every IDN plan surfaces the payers that gate access. Reps plan both sides without leaving the workflow.

Plans / Formulary view

Payer-level plan tab shows formulary status by line of business and product — plan, coverage state, and next action live together.

eMIRF integration

Medical information requests captured against the payer flow back into the plan as evidence of engagement and scientific exchange.

Coverage-aware objectives

The payer goal library ships pre-loaded with the categories payer teams actually use — Coverage, Pull-through, Access expansion, Contracting — and is fully replaceable per customer.

Stakeholder layers tuned to payer

Contacts and key stakeholders carry medical director / P&T / formulary roles, and influence is tracked at the plan level — not just the institution level.

MULTI-LEVEL ACCOUNT COVERAGE

One platform. Every level your team works.

One auth model, one territory model, one configuration layer — the same objective → priority → activity hierarchy plans every level your commercial team engages.

KEY CAPABILITIES

Built around how field teams actually work.

Every capability is designed to remove the gap between the plan and the activity — so the rep updates one record, in context, and the plan stays alive.

Tasked, owned, dated

Every activity is assigned to one or more people, flagged required or optional, and tied to a due date. Activities surface on the assignee's worklist — not buried in a plan PDF.

Stakeholder mapping

Track key contacts by role, department, title, and influence level so each activity gets tasked to the right relationship owner. Three distinct layers — clinical, contacts, and office staff.

Research completion tracking

P&T, payer/purchasing, surgical, and brand-specific research dimensions live on the account record — so the team knows what's done before picking the next priority.

Readiness at the facility

Access Wins per product, formulary status per product, and tenant-defined attributes feed a real readiness picture — color-coded, sortable, filterable per account.

Embedded sales & engagement

Procedure deciles, rolling 12-month units, payor mix, QTD/MTD/LTD calls, last call, last Rx — in-context on the same screen as the tasked activities.

Mobile-first execution

Built for iPad use in the field — touch-optimized, offline-capable, always current. Activity status changes sync back when the device reconnects.

Fully configurable

Objective libraries, priority catalogs, activity templates, key-attribute fields, research dimensions, readiness attributes, account tiers, and field labels — all configured per customer without code changes.

Multi-language

Every screen, label, and notification ships in nine languages out of the box. Users see their preferred language on first sign-in.
