One case, from an anonymous report to a signed report
IC-1042 at Northwind Bio: an anonymous report about Corventa speaker dinners in Atlanta North. High risk, under counsel direction, 4 custodians on legal hold LH-2026-031. Here is what happens next, screen by screen, in the working solution.
- 01Day 18
One case, one timeline, the clock in view
Lena Ortiz · Senior compliance investigatorThe case bar shows IC-1042 — HCP interactions, US Southeast, subject Ryan Castell, territory manager, counsel Omar Haddad — on day 18, due Nov 2, against an industry median of 28. Report SU-2214 is already on the timeline, its key passages highlighted. Under it, 2,318 items wait on legal hold: 1,684 emails, 412 CRM notes, 96 expense lines, 58 event records, 4 training records and 64 policies.
SU-2214: “Drinks go on a separate bill so the dinner looks like it is under the limit. I have seen this since spring.”

“Load evidence” — three agents build the case file
The agentsThe evidence collector reads 2,318 items for 4 custodians and keeps 16 exhibits in 14.2 s. The timeline builder lays 22 events in date order across 6 sources, each linked to the passage it rests on, and flags 11 where sources disagree. The policy analyst lays 5 allegations against 5 policy clauses; its proposals wait for Lena's decision.
Agents at work on IC-1042 — “read-only · legal hold respected”.

“2 days before the split payment”
Timeline builderSeven lanes — Speak Up, Events, Expenses & payments, Email, CRM, Records & HR, Interviews — and a close-up of the Jul 16 dinner. On Jul 14 Ryan Castell emails the venue coordinator at Lakeline Meeting Services. The timeline builder links that email to the card payment two days later, and the panel opens EX-16 at the highlighted passage.
EX-16: “Can you ask Bellhaven to put the bar on its own ticket? The dinner has to stay under $125 a head on our side.”
- 04Jul 16
Eight signatures, five covers
Timeline builderThree sources disagree on one night. The sign-in sheet for program SP-26-0716 carries 8 signatures. The Bellhaven Steakhouse receipt shows 5 covers and $1,610.40, including a $488 bar bill, paid in two card transactions — $998.40 at 21:51 and $612.00 at 21:58. ER-55821 claims $998.40 for 8 HCPs, $124.80 a head; ER-55822 files $612.00 as an “office lunch”.
“Same day, another source disagrees: Program 7 · 8 signatures on the sheet.”
- 05A second report
A named report lands on the same dinner
Intake & triage agentOn Oct 6 a practice manager in Marietta reports that Dr. Lund received a thank-you note for the Jul 16 dinner at Bellhaven while she was at a conference in Denver. The intake agent reads SU-2291 in 3.8 s, classifies it HCP interactions, high risk, and matches it to IC-1042 at 91% — same program, same restaurant, an HCP on the sign-in sheet. Lena decides whether to add it to the case as an exhibit.
“Checked protections — anti-retaliation notice sent to the reporter.”

Four interviews, witnesses first, the subject last
Interview plannerThe interview planner reads 4 gaps on the timeline — who signed for the HCPs who were not there, who approved ER-55822 and why, why needs assessments were waived, whether prescribing drove the add-on programs. It writes 17 questions for 4 people and puts them on the Interviews lane: Alana Pierce on Oct 9, Jess Alvarado on Oct 10, Mia Torrance on Oct 13 and Ryan Castell, the subject, on Oct 14.
The counsel notice goes on every employee outline — 3 of the 4.
- 07Oct 14 outline
Every question tests an event and shows its exhibit
Lena Ortiz · Senior compliance investigatorRyan Castell's outline has 7 questions grouped by allegation, each with the timeline event it tests, the gap it closes and the exhibit to show — “Jul 14 · Email”, G2, EX-16. The interview opens with the counsel notice. Lena can add a question, send the outline to counsel or record her notes.
Counsel notice: “I am working with Omar Haddad, who represents Northwind Bio, not you personally. This conversation is privileged; the privilege belongs to the company, which may decide to share it.”
- 08Her decision
She decides each finding; the agent only proposes
Lena Ortiz · Senior compliance investigatorEach allegation sits beside its clause of SOP-HCP-014, with evidence for, evidence against and open questions. For A3, meal cap exceeded and split across two reports, the analyst proposes substantiated at 96%: three records agree. Lena marks A1 to A4 substantiated, each recorded in the audit trail with her name. A5, needs assessments skipped for the added programs, was found outside the reported scope, so it goes to Omar Haddad first.
A3: “Three records agree. The real cost was $322 a head — $985.40 over the cap for 5 people.”
- 09Drafted
38 statements cited, 0 uncited
Report writerThe report writer turns the 11 flagged events into the chronology and Lena's decisions — never the proposals — into the findings, then adds the root cause and corrective actions in the house format. Every statement links to its exhibit, and the draft carries the privileged and confidential label. She can edit it or export it to Word.
The report cannot go to counsel while a statement is uncited or an allegation is still undecided.

Counsel signs; six corrective actions get owners
Omar Haddad · Employment counselLena sends the report to Omar Haddad for sign-off. Once he signs, 6 corrective actions become tasks with owners and due dates — among them recovering the $985.40 over the cap and the $612.00 mis-filed charge with internal audit, correcting the Jul 16 transparency records for every listed HCP who did not attend, and a monitoring rule that flags split charges at one merchant on one day.
The banner: signed by Omar Haddad — “6 corrective actions created as tasks; the case moved to Remediation.”
