Adaptam Inc. has 2 pending office actions in the Computing & Software technology area. These actions are assigned to 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units. TILLERY, RASHAWN N is the busiest examiner with 1 pending office action, showing an even distribution of the current workload across the USPTO. This lack of examiner concentration means that the company's prosecution results are subject to the individual discretion of two different officials.
The 2 distinct art units involved suggest that the company's software innovations are being reviewed by different specialized groups. This variety requires a case-by-case approach to prosecution rather than a single unified strategy. With 2 distinct examiners involved, practitioners should expect to navigate two different examination styles across the 2 distinct art units. This distribution helps mitigate the risk that a single examiner's negative trend could impact the entire pending portfolio.
Because TILLERY, RASHAWN N and the other distinct examiner each have only 1 pending office action, the workload is evenly spread. This balance is a key feature of the company's current prosecution profile in the Computing & Software sector. The presence of 2 distinct art units indicates that the technology being prosecuted is diverse enough to be routed to different technical groups at the USPTO.
Difficulty is derived from the rejection statutes on the most recent pending office action. §101-driven and multi-statute cases are graded Hard; §112-only and obviousness-type double-patenting cases are graded Easy; everything else is Medium. "Unknown" means we have not yet parsed a statute for that office action.

|---|---|
| §103 only | 1 (50%) |
