1 In line with Member States’ requests, Programs were provided an opportunity to define targets that had not been defined in the Program and Budget 2014/15, i.e. “tbd” targets, during the baseline update exercise (launched in July 2014), using the year-end 2013 data as the basis. Targets that were not defined during this process remain undefined, and performance data are consequently rated as “not assessable.”

2Renamed WIPO Translate.

3 In the PPR 2012/13, it was reported that reference to the annual World IP Day campaign was reported in 89 countries. The actual number of countries reporting was 93.

4 Corrigendum: The number of requests for communication under Article 6ter dealt with in 2012 was actually 69, as reported in the PPR 2012/13.

5 Corrigendum: The number of signs published in Article 6ter database at the end of 2012 was actually 84, as reported in the PPR 2012/13.

6 The target refers to the number of signs published during the biennium 2014/15.

7 Corrigendum: It was reported that there were 18 copyright offices using GDA at the end of 2013. The cumulative number was actually 15, which was in line with the target of 15 offices set or the 2012/13 biennium.

8 http://www.wipo.int/edocs/pubdocs/en/wipo_pub_1043.pdf

9 Exceptionally, the original target “Decisions by appropriate PCT bodies up to the end of 2015” has been changed in order to better enable the measurement of the progress made towards further developing the PCT system in line with the PCT roadmap recommendations.

10 A record copy is a PCT application transmitted to the International Bureau (IB) by a receiving Office after its filing at, and its processing by, that Office. Because record copies are only received at the IB after processing at a receiving Office, the figures are strongly influenced by processing times at these Offices. For this reason, trends in the receipt of record copies, while valid indicators of IB workloads, do no exactly match trends in the filing of PCT applications.

11 Following an independent review of PCTIS performance metrics, its definition slightly changed from the one described in the Program and Budget 2014/15

12 The scale in 2012 used a different set of criteria. The set of criteria was refined for 2013 to consider more relevant factors. This change explains the differences in the ratings for 2013 and 2014 (e.g. 38 and 39 respectively) and 2012 (79).

13 See “Total workload” above.

14 See “Total workload” above.

15 Corrigendum: The actual number of designs contained in 2012 was 12,454 and not 12,506 as published in the Program and Budget 2014/15 or 11,971 (the number of international registrations in 2012), as published in the PPR 2012/13.

16 Corrigendum: The PPR 2012/13 reported renewals and grant of protection as the two automated processes. The grant of protection process was not automated at the end of 2013.

17 The Madrid System provides support to the Hague System, in particular in translation and IT activities. These costs were disregarded in this method.

18 See “Total workload” above

19 See the ratios for applications and renewals in “Total workload”, above.

24 In the PPR 2012/13, it was reported that the NIPS-D database was in use at the end of 2013, following completion of the development phase. Implementation of the database did not begin until 2014.

25 Corrigendum: In the PPR 2012/13, it was reported that Ethiopia had adopted an IP policy in 2012/13. The IP Policy was finalized in 2014 for consideration in the national approval process.

26 Corrigendum: In the PPR 2012/13, it was reported that a national IP innovation strategy was under development in Tunisia. In 2014, Tunisia began discussions on the possibility of developing such a strategy.

27 Corrigendum: In the PPR 2012/13, it was reported that Algeria was in the course of adopting a national IP strategy in 2012/13. At the end of 2014, Algeria was in the process of reformulating a national IP strategy.

28 The process was delayed because of structural changes in the Government.

29 The process had stalled in 2011. In 2014, a consultative process was re-initiated.

30 The IP strategy was country-led. In 2014, WIPO assistance was provided on the innovation component of the strategy.

31 Idem.

32 The number of applications is based on the country of origin. Figures for 2014 are estimated. The percentage of increase/decrease is in comparison to 2013.

33 Idem.

34 Idem.

35 The higher level of participation from Latin America and the Caribbean is primarily due the customized versions of the General Course on IP (DL101) in Portuguese and Spanish.

36 Available is defined as having been translated into the language and able to be offered to partner IP Offices. It should be noted that in a given year not all available courses are offered in all language versions, depending on when the new language version might become available in the year and/or the preparedness of the partner IP Offices with whom the courses are run.

37 Contribution to this publication was done under the FIT US SMEs, which was closed during Q1 2015.

38 See Program 10.

39Renamed WIPO Translate.

40 The number of users refers to unique ‘users’ rather than unique ‘visitors’, which avoids the risk of counting the number of unique visitors who only view the page and do not perform searches, and thus provides a more accurate representation of the database usage.

41 Idem.

45 Corrigendum: In the PPR 2012/13 it was reported that there were seven Offices using WIPO CASE at the end of 2013. The actual number of Offices using the platform at the end of 2013 was nine.

46 The average monthly figure is extrapolated from data from January to May 2014. In June 2014, a new version of the IP Statistics Data Center was implemented, resulting in the inability to track the data for the second half of the year.

47 Corrigendum: The actual number of Partners at the end of 2013 was 36 and the actual number of uploads 820, as opposed to the 37 and 800 reported in the PPR 2012/13.

48 In the PPR 2012/13, it was reported that reference to the annual World IP Day campaign was reported in 89 countries. The actual number of countries reporting was 93.

49 Because a WIPO Stakeholders Perceptions Survey was not conducted in 2013, the data reported in the PPR 2012/13 were extrapolated from the WIPO Service Orientation Survey, which uses a different methodology and is sent to a different stakeholder group. As such, the updated baseline for 2013 is not comparable with the data for 2014.

50 The 2014 performance data is comparable with the Original Baseline P&B 2014/15 of 65 per cent, which was based on the WIPO Stakeholders Perceptions Survey 2012.

51 In the 2012/13 PPR, it was reported that there were 226 videos. The actual number of videos at the end of 2013 was 228. The average number of views has been updated accordingly.

52 The original baseline in the Program and Budget 2014/15 was calculated using estimated figures as at mid-2013. These figures have now been updated.

54 See also WO/PBC/22/12 WIPO’s Accountability Framework

55 Corrigendum: In the 2012/13 PPR, it was reported that 53 per cent of Programs were using performance data for managing program performance.

56 Data available on a biennial basis only.

57 Only staff members in the Professional and higher categories.

58 The Coordination Committee is yet to reach a conclusion on whether or not a formal system should replace the 1975 accord on geographical distribution.

59 Appendix III contains an overview of progress in 2014 on the four CMP projects falling under premises management.

60 Corrigendum: Due to a typographical error, the target date as published in the Program and Budget 2014/15 reflected the December 31, 2013 instead of December 31, 2015.

65 In order to streamline the financial management of the multiple funds-in-trust from the Government of Finland, which were received in multiple currencies, in 2014, the funds were consolidated into one fund, FIT Finland (CHF), based in Swiss francs.

69 In October 2012, a Memorandum creating the FIT/IBERO was signed as a financial instrument of the Ibero-American Program of Industrial Property

70 Expected date of completion: May 2016.

71 Due to fluctuations in the foreign exchange rates, the amount of 20,935 Swiss francs was absorbed by WIPO in 2014, resulting in a zero balance.
