A data processing center contracts with a patent owner to prepare a patent application and then independently contracts with one of a plurality of independent contracting patent agents to prepare the patent application with a specific relationship between the sections of the patent application. A patent agent database contains a patent agent identification and subject matter classifications for patent applications by that contracting patent agent which is scanned for a match to avoid the same subject matter from two different customers being assigned to the same contract patent agent. The contract with the contract patent agent includes specific provisions regarding the relationship of the sections of a patent application and the completed patent application is graded by the center patent agent for conformance to the specific provisions of the preparation contract. The grading is stored with each contract patent agent in the contract patent agent database. |
