ANSI/LES Version 1.1-2022 Management System for the Protection of Intellectual Property in the Supply Chain - Requirements

The purpose of this LES Standard is to provide practical requirements in establishing and implementing an Intellectual Property (IP) Protection Management System (IPPMS) aimed at achieving improvements in the protection of all types of  IP within an organization and throughout all levels of its global supply chain.  This LES Standard is applicable for any organization. 

We envision that this standard can be used by:

• an organization as guidance for developing and implementing their own IPPMS
• an organization to establish expectations for the IPPMS of the third parties they work with and to assess the maturity of the IPPMS
• organizations to voluntarily contract with a qualified independent organization to assess the maturity of the IPPMS
