CPA Global enhanced FoundationIP® makes for smarter IP portfolio management

CPA Global today launches a major release of FoundationIP®, its Software as a Service (SaaS) solution that enables law firms and corporations to drive better decision making and improve productivity in managing intellectual property.

Following CPA Global’s acquisition of Innography in November 2015, CPA Global has begun the integration of Innography’s global patent database, PatentScout into FoundationIP.

FoundationIP provides IP law firms and corporations access to on-demand and customisable dashboards that deliver a clear and comprehensive overview of a user’s IP management activities. The software enhances communication and assigns activity between attorneys, docketing staff and inventors.

Since 1990, the volume of patent activity has increased three-fold, placing additional pressure on law firms and corporations to ensure IP innovation is protected and monetized. By combining an easy and intuitive user interface, access to PatentScout data, advanced collaboration features, analytics and reporting, and task and workflow automation, FoundationIP sets a new standard for the future of IP management within law firms and IP departments.

Toni Nijm, Chief Innovation & Technology Officer at CPA Global says: “With the latest version of FoundationIP, CPA Global is taking an important step towards our vision of providing decision-makers with all of the information they need to make IP decisions, at precisely the time they need it, by integrating, analysing and visualizing private and public data.”

Noel Young, FoundationIP Product Owner at CPA Global, comments: “Feedback from our clients suggests that, more than ever, organisations want to make data driven IP decisions. FoundationIP 5.0 gives organisations access to high quality patent data, advanced analytics, and KPI’s, as well as the ability to customise user experience and content. The introduction of user configurable dashboards and the ability to create and share visualisations, gives organisations the tools to align their IP with their wider business strategy. With access to Innography’s PatentScout, FoundationIP users will have a competitive advantage.”
