Technology area: Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering
3 pending office actions • 1 art units • 3 examiners • 0 of 3 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready • 2 patents granted in the last 365 days
Goodpack Ibc (Singapore) Pte. Ltd. currently manages 2 pending office actions within the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area. These 2 actions are assigned to 2 distinct examiners, meaning each matter is being reviewed by a different individual. The prosecution is occurring within 1 distinct art unit, which suggests that the company's technology is concentrated in a single specialized examination group.
THOMAS, KAREEN KAY is the busiest examiner for the portfolio, holding 1 pending office action. This count of 1 is shared by the other distinct examiner involved in the 2 pending office actions. The presence of only 1 distinct art unit for 2 pending office actions indicates a high degree of technical focus. Practitioners must navigate the specific requirements of 2 different examiners while working within the same art unit in the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering sector. This concentration within a single art unit suggests that the company's mechanical innovations are being evaluated by a closely related group of experts.
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.
