A system and method for identifying a value gap in a patent portfolio strategy of an organization. A processor of a computing system defines a first data cluster that includes a first plurality of focus areas that are ranked according to an internal ranking of the organization, and a second data cluster that includes a second plurality of focus areas having a universal market significance. A patent worthiness is ranked so that the second plurality of focus areas is ranked according to a universal ranking. A Kemeny distance is calculated between the internal ranking and the universal ranking for each focus area of the first plurality of focus areas. A loss function is applied using the Kemeny distance to calculate the value gap score which defines a business penalty for the misalignment between the patent portfolio strategy of the organization and a universal market focus.
