The challenge
Rapid engineering output was outpacing the company's ability to identify protectable inventions, and filings were being made reactively without regard to the product roadmap or competitive landscape.
Our approach
Invention harvesting cadence
Established quarterly disclosure sessions with engineering leads and a lightweight scoring rubric for commercial relevance.
Roadmap-aligned filing strategy
Mapped filings to product releases and target markets so spend followed revenue rather than engineering enthusiasm.
Docket and budget governance
Installed an annual portfolio review to prune low-value families and reallocate budget toward core claims.
