GB/T 29490-2023 specifies requirements for an enterprise intellectual property compliance management system. It applies a process-based approach that combines the Plan-Do-Check-Act cycle with risk-based thinking to help organizations identify intellectual property compliance obligations, manage risks, protect and use intellectual property, fulfill compliance responsibilities, and improve business performance.
The standard covers organizational context, leadership, planning, support, operations, performance evaluation, improvement, intellectual property fundamentals, intellectual property compliance management, and recommended practices for trade secret protection. Informative appendices provide guidance on trade secret management and typical prohibited conduct involving patents, trademarks, copyrights, and trade secrets.
Application Scope: Applicable to enterprises establishing, implementing, maintaining, and continuously improving an intellectual property compliance management system; other organizations may refer to the relevant requirements as appropriate.
