Capability 03 · Shape coverage

Territory Alignment

Model assignment choices and visit clusters, then review changes, trade-offs, and provenance in a consolidated offline report.

The problem

Territory choices affect workload, travel, relationship continuity, priority coverage, product expertise, and local employment rules at once. A single assignment list hides the alternatives and the cost of each movement.

Objective

Create immutable named scenarios that make HCP-to-representative assignments, objective scores, raw metrics, unassigned records, manager overrides, and the exact saved input snapshot inspectable before a field decision is made.

How it helps

  • Loads governed HCP, representative, current-alignment, and constraint data as separate inputs and fingerprints the saved universe.
  • Models vacancies, new hires, pinned overrides, objective weights, and product/account constraints without overwriting scenario names.
  • Produces a self-contained offline report with KPIs, relative territory view, charts, review queue, changed assignments, provenance, and advanced exports.

How the plugin works

Input

Four governed datasets

HCPs, representatives, current alignment, and constraints CSVs plus named scenario settings and overrides.

Tools

Model, compare, report, and route

  • ta_status
  • ta_align
  • ta_evaluate
  • ta_compare
  • ta_visualize
  • ta_cluster
Expected output

Decision-ready scenario reports

A consolidated offline HTML report, scenario JSON and formula-safe CSVs, comparison metrics, review queue, and representative visit routes.

A three-step workflow

01 / GOVERN

Prepare the operating inputs

Confirm account ownership, field roster, coordinates, product expertise, consent, and constraints.

02 / MODEL

Save immutable scenarios

Apply vacancies, hires, overrides, and objective weights while preserving the exact input snapshot and baseline.

03 / DECIDE

Review the offline report

Compare movements, workload, travel, priority coverage, review exceptions, unassigned HCPs, and route feasibility.

Sample input

The fictional YAML compresses the four runtime input concepts into one readable dossier: two HCPs, two employees, current ownership, and an account-grouping constraint. It is representative—not a replacement for the supported CSVs.

Interpreted sample output

Both fictional HCPs remain with their existing representative, so relationship continuity scores highly and no record is unassigned. The excerpt also concentrates the two-account workload on one representative; a manager should challenge that trade-off rather than treating the composite score as the answer.

Business value indicators

Indicator What a business reviewer learns
Priority coverage percentage Whether high-priority accounts receive a feasible assignment
Reassignment percentage How much relationship disruption a scenario introduces
Workload balance and territory summaries Where demand or potential is concentrated by representative
Average and maximum travel estimate Where geography may make a scenario impractical
Unassigned HCPs and reasons Which governed records need an explicit manager decision
Input fingerprints and review queue Whether compared scenarios use the same governed universe and which exceptions need action

Boundaries and human review

Results are planning recommendations, not an automatic reorganisation. Confirm employment rules, accessibility, consent, account ownership, travel constraints, product expertise, vacancies, and manager overrides. The default consolidated report is self-contained and makes no network requests. A separately requested public basemap loads CARTO/OpenStreetMap resources and may disclose map extent or coordinates to those providers. Qualified operations and field leaders must review every public-beta scenario before operational use.
