Portfolio overview

International Controls And Measurements Corporation has been granted 7 US utility patents between 2015 and 2019, placing International Controls And Measurements Corporation at rank #35,960 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 13 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 13.0 claims per patent with primary concentration in G05D (SYSTEMS FOR CONTROLLING OR REGULATING NON-ELECTRIC VARIABLES). As a US Corporation, International Controls And Measurements Corporation is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, International sits between Intervalve, Inc. (7 patents, rank #35,956) and Interventional Autonomics Corporation (7 patents, rank #35,964) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 27.7/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.

Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 0 grants, compared with 7 in the 2015–2019 window, a -100% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. The US Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.

Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. International Controls And Measurements Corporation's 13.0 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 13 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark International Controls And Measurements Corporation against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
