Haskoningdhv Nederland B V has 1 pending office action in the Chemistry & Materials technology area. This matter is being processed within 1 distinct art unit, indicating a singular point of focus for the company's current active prosecution. The distinct examiner assigned to this portfolio is BOI-LIEN THI NGUYEN, who manages the pending action currently on file. This structure represents a very narrow prosecution pipeline where all current efforts are directed toward a single technical classification and examiner.
Because the busiest examiner pending count is also a single action, the company's entire active portfolio is subject to the review of BOI-LIEN THI NGUYEN. This concentration simplifies the administrative burden of tracking multiple applications but increases the importance of the relationship with this specific examiner. Practitioners should focus on the specific requirements of the Chemistry & Materials art unit to move this single pending application toward allowance, as there are no other active matters to balance the portfolio's risk.
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.
