What this shows Intermec's Innovation Score is 56.6/100 (top 6% of the PatentsView-derived corpus). The chart places that score against the nearest Innovation Score peers plus corpus poles, not a reprint of the volume ranking.

Does more volume mean deeper claims for Intermec?

Each dot is one of Intermec’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). Intermec’s own 20.2 claims/patent is ABOVE the 11.3 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

How Intermec's grant cadence moved

Between 2020–2024, Intermec IP Corp. received 15 grants versus 77 in 2015–2019 (-81% equal-window velocity, below median growth). Across complete PatentsView years, output peaked in 2015 at 20 grants and bottomed in 2021 at 2. Lead class G06K accounts for 46.2% of the portfolio across 50 subclasses. Volume neighbours: CSP Technologies, Inc. (#3,881) and LG CNS Co., Ltd. (#3,889).

Intermec's three-year grant acceleration

Intermec IP Corp. shows 9 grants in 2022–2024 against only 16 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
