Freedom to Operate Study Since a patent has a limited time span, scope and is applicable countries, Freedom to Operate (FTO) or Clearance Search helps to evaluate whether a proposed product has the freedom to operate in a country. Freedom to Operate/Clearance Search determines any infringement of a patent by a product or service to be launched. It is a jurisdiction-based search that evaluates any intellectual property rights that may hinder the manufacturing and marketing of a product countries. An FTO search conducted can help in deciding the direction of product development. To perform an FTO, we require the description of the product with its key features that need clearance and the geographic regions where one intends to legally commercialize the product. After the product’s key features have been approved by the client, an extensive jurisdiction-based search is executed focusing on the scope of the patents including the patent applications. Why go for the FTO search? FTO helps to assess the risk of potential infringement within a given jurisdiction and avoid subsequent litigation by evaluating IP of third parties in a technology domain. FTO analysis can also assist in tracking the prosecution status of patents (whether the patent is expired or in-force). This would help in devising the timing of launching the product into the market without worrying about third-party IP infringement. FTO helps in exploring potential licensing and mergers or acquisitions amongst the assignee in the specific technology.
