What this shows Ngee's Innovation Score is 45.1/100 (top 24% 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 Ngee?

Each dot is one of Ngee’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). Ngee’s own 23.4 claims/patent is ABOVE the 12.9 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Ngee's grants concentrate

Ngee ANN Polytechnic is a focused PatentsView assignee: 27 CPC subclasses with 64.3% of grants classified under B01D (Separation). Peak complete grant year is 2021 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Ngee sits between Neste OIL OYJ and Nidec Control Techniques Limited.

Ngee's three-year grant acceleration

Ngee ANN Polytechnic shows 3 grants in 2022–2024 against only 6 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.
