The five-year BPA is valued at up to $50 million and was
released by USPTO’s Chief Information Officer. The scope of the
work includes piloting, testing and implementing advanced
technologies—such as intelligent automation, artificial
intelligence (AI), microservices, machine learning, natural
language processing, robotic process automation, and blockchain.
The goal of IAISS is to transform business processes and enhance
mission delivery. It will set a standard framework for innovation
for the USPTO and could serve as a model across the federal
government.
AFS and Google Cloud started working with the USPTO to help the
agency’s more than 9,000 patent examiners rapidly perform more
thorough searches by augmenting their on-premise search tools with
AI. The new solution—created by merging Google's machine learning
models with Accenture's design, prototyping and data science
capabilities—helps extend examiners' expertise during the patent
search process.
“We’re excited to help the USPTO, through the collaborative
environment of the Accenture Federal Digital Studio, to leverage
innovative solutions to enhance mission operations,” said Ira
Entis, Accenture Federal Services’ Growth and Strategy lead. “Our
studio teams use advanced software prototyping, applied data
intelligence, and the service design expertise of Fjord — Accenture
Interactive’s design and innovation consultancy — to help clients
across all sectors of the federal government create citizen-and
people-centric tools.”
Mike Daniels, vice president for Google Cloud’s Global Public
Sector, said, “We are excited to apply our scalable, secure
infrastructure and latest AI solutions toward helping USPTO improve
how it performs patent searches. Our hope is that these tools will
deliver everyone —from startups to large businesses—higher quality
patent search results, which means more reliable patents
overall.”
