Patent applications in the biotechnology domain require a detailed sequence listing, which is a critical part of the patent application process. These listings are essential for determining the scope of a patent and ensuring its compliance with international patent filing requirements. However, creating and maintaining sequence listings can be a time-consuming, resource-intensive, and challenging task, and not all businesses have in-house capabilities to manage the same. Thus, it is often recommended to avail the sequence listing service of an external partner expert in the space.
This case study discusses how The Sequence Listing Company (TSLC) helped a top-tier IAM 500 law firm in managing the sequence listings for its clients’ patent applications. You will read about the solution provided by TSLC and the impact it created. But first, let us delve into the challenges in this case study.
The Challenge
A partner from a big law firm of 1000 attorneys was looking for an external vendor to handle more than 150 sequence listings annually. The law firm has a large number of clients that require sequence listing service for their patent applications, demanding significant time and resources. The partner recognized the need for a more streamlined process; hence, an external partner that could handle the volume of sequence listings while reducing the amount of time, budgets, and resources required. The challenge was to develop an efficient and scalable solution that could meet the needs of the law firm and its clients, while ensuring high-quality sequence listings, legal compliance, and timely delivery within the given resources and time constraints.
The Solution
The Sequence Listing Company came to the rescue by providing an innovative solution that could streamline the process of generating sequence listings for the law firm. Leveraging our team of biotech and sequence listing experts, we were able to develop multiple algorithms in-house to generate sequence listings as per the recent ST26 standards. The algorithms reduced the time and resources required to generate sequence listings, providing significant cost savings to the client.
To ensure the accuracy of their listings, TSLC also implemented a rigorous three-level quality control process that further reduced the need for additional resources and time. This process helped ensure compliance with the latest ST.26 standards, and maintain the quality of sequence listing service while handling a large volume of requests.
The Impact
TSLC was able to deliver 100 sequence listings for the client in a span of just seven months, including four sequence listings with over 40,000 sequences and with over 98% quality.
