core metrics: A work product metric
representing correctness of actions, and
a clarity metric that more thoroughly
explores the sufficiency of the
examiner’s reasoning in an Office
action, thus moving away from the prior
goal-based quality ‘‘score’’ that reflected
not only quality of work product but
also results of surveys, used to discover
both internal and external stakeholder
opinions, and QIR process indicators?
Which of the proposed clarity and
correctness review items in the
proposed standardized ‘‘Master Review
Form,’’ available at https://www.uspto.
gov/patentquality, should be used as the
key drivers of patent examination
quality metrics?
(2) How can patent metrics best
provide objective, rather than
subjective, measurements of qualityrelated features in clarity and
correctness reviews?
In addition to the three questions
posed above, the USPTO welcomes
comments on any and all areas of
quality measurement. Suggestions for
rephrased or additional quality metrics
review items, especially clarity
indicators, are welcomed. The USPTO
will consider all submitted comments as
it develops the next iteration of quality
metrics.
