Documented studies have demonstrated that up to 94% of the granted US patents require corrections to be filed.

Defectively issued patents are not self-correcting – you may end up spending many valuable hours trying to catch errors that are seemingly insignificant, but if left uncorrected can lead to major consequences. There are numerous examples of improper or missing proofreading quality controls that have resulted in disastrous consequences. As an IP Professional, you understand that if allowed claims are not printed, they cannot be enforced. Therefore, many hours must be spent meticulously reviewing issued patents.

In your fast paced environment where billable hours are in conflict with the need to perform non-billable quality control activities, it can often be difficult to dedicate the necessary resources to ensure consistently superior levels of quality. On the other hand, sacrificing rigorous and demanding quality control standards for cost savings inevitably has its own long-term negative impact.
