BP PULSE FLEET NORTH AMERICA INC. currently manages 3 pending office actions in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. These 3 actions are handled by 3 distinct examiners, meaning no examiner is currently reviewing more than one application for the company. The portfolio is also spread across 3 distinct art units.
SANTIAGO-MERCED, FRANCIS Z is the busiest examiner, holding 1 pending office action. With 3 pending office actions total, the company's current prosecution footprint is small and entirely decentralized. Practitioners must address the specific preferences of 3 different examiners across 3 different art units, as there is no overlap to leverage for a more unified prosecution strategy. This decentralized structure requires practitioners to be highly adaptable to the specific feedback of the 3 distinct examiners. Since there is no concentration in a single art unit, the company must navigate the nuances of 3 distinct art units simultaneously. Every pending office action represents a significant portion of the company's active portfolio, making each interaction with the 3 distinct examiners highly consequential for the firm's overall intellectual property position in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems sector.
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.
