The proposal management table 31 includes a “suggestion identification number” record, a “purchaser identification number” record, a “content” record in which the contents entered in the idea entry field 131 are stored, and the proposal contents include industrial property rights. A “judgment result” record for inputting a result of judging whether or not it is worth acquiring is provided, and a “voting number” record for storing the number of votes when popular voting is performed on the proposal contents described later. The “suggestion identification number” is generated as a number including the serial number of the experiment kit in the example of FIG. Thus, by looking at the proposal identification number, it can be understood which experiment kit is based on the idea. Further, by extracting the serial number of the experiment kit from the proposal identification number and searching the sales information table 21 of the sales management DB 20 based on this, it is possible to know information on the name of the proposer. The idea entry field 131 may be a free entry field, or the method of entry may be guided to the proposer, such as the name, purpose, and composition of the idea.

(Step S9)
When the consent information receiving unit 11e accepts the consent information, the purchaser information receiving unit 11a provides the account number for transferring the compensation for transferring the industrial property right and the return of profit when selling the product based on the proposal. A transfer information input screen 140 for input is transmitted to the proposal terminal 60. The transfer information input screen 140 shown in FIG. 10 includes a predetermined item entry field 141 and a send button 142. The purchaser inputs predetermined items and clicks the send button 142 to return the transfer account information to the information management server 10. The purchaser information receiving unit 11 a records the received transfer account information of the proposer in the “transfer account” record of the sales information table 21. When the consideration or reduction money for transferring industrial property rights is used as the acquisition and maintenance cost of industrial property rights, it is not necessary to enter and record a transfer account.

(Step S10)
The judge of the proposal content judges the proposal content and judges whether or not to acquire the industrial property right (S10). The determiner transmits the determination result to the information management server 10. The determination result adding unit 11 g stores the result in the “determination result” record of the proposal management table 31. In the “judgment result” record, the type of industrial property right to be applied, for example, “patent” or “utility model” is input, and “X” is recorded for those not applying. Moreover, you may comprise so that a flag may be raised only when applying. Further, in the proposal management table 31 in FIG. 5B, the proposal identification number “EX0108801-1” is applied for a patent, and “EX0108801-2” is not applied for. If the industrial property right is to be acquired, the process proceeds to step S11, and if not, the process proceeds to step S12.

(Step S11)
The determination result adding unit 11g generates a record of the proposal identification number determined to acquire the industrial property right in step S10 in the application information table 41 of the application progress DB 40 (S11). The application information table 41 includes a “suggestion identification number” record, a “type” record indicating the type of industrial property right, information for indicating the application and progress of the industrial property right, such as a “application number” record and a “name” record. Prepare. The “type” record, the “application number” record, and the “name” record may be manually input by the user, or may be automatically input from a system that manages industrial property right application processing and progress information. When the application is completed, the determination result adding unit 11g sets a flag indicating that the application is completed in the “determination result” record of the proposal management table 31.

(Step S12)
The one determined not to acquire the industrial property right in S10 or the one for which the application processing for the industrial property right is completed in S11 is posted on the HP for publishing to a third party (S11). The proposal information disclosure unit 11h records the proposal identification number of the proposal in which “x” is recorded in the “judgment result” record of the proposal information management table 31 and the application number in the “application number” record of the application management table 41. The proposal identification number of the current proposal is acquired, and the proposal management table 31 is referred to. And the proposal content corresponding to the said proposal identification number is read, and it publishes on HP. FIG. 11 is an example of a proposal disclosure screen 150 posted on the HP for publishing proposal information. On the proposal disclosure screen 150, an introduction column 151 in which the name and outline of an idea are posted, a detail button 152 for displaying the idea in more detail, and an “agree!” Button 153 for expressing support for the idea are displayed. Is provided.
