Abstract
As more and more patents for new technology are issued, companies and organizations are interested in managing patents systematically so that the patents should be a valuable asset rather than burden. In this study we propose the method to select superior patents effectively using QFD. First, what firms want in the patents that have long been accumulated is identified and appropriate patent indices are derived to illustrate how the firm’s requirements are satisfied. Then the importance of firm’s requirements and their relationship with patent indices are determined through AHP’s pairwise comparison. Finally, the results are analyzed and demonstrated with the case of a real company, which shows that patents are sorted out well according to the firm’s requirements.
