Hewlett Packard Enterprise Development L.P. has 87 pending office actions in Networking & Security. Those matters involve 83 distinct examiners across 70 distinct art units, demonstrating a very broad prosecution footprint with extensive dispersion across examination resources.
DO, CHAT C is the busiest examiner, with 2 pending matters. That examiner handles only a small portion of the overall docket, so examiner-specific tactics cannot serve as the primary portfolio strategy. Counsel should use robust matter-level tracking, art-unit segmentation, and coordinated review of recurring networking and security claim issues. The breadth of assignments also makes consistent invention disclosure and amendment records especially important for avoiding inconsistent positions across cases.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 21 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
Every pending office action with a known statutory deadline, placed on a days-until-due axis. Dots left of Today are overdue; the further right, the more runway. Cases that share a deadline window stack vertically. 21 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date.
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.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §101 only | 1 (1%) |
| §101 + other | 6 (8%) |
| §103 only | 44 (59%) |
| §102 only | 4 (5%) |
| §112 only | 1 (1%) |
| Double-patenting only | 2 (3%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 17 (23%) |
How the docket's pending cases split across USPTO tech-center bands.
Manual office-action response work runs about 10 hours per case. The time-saved bands below show what IP Author's prosecution pipeline typically delivers — a conservative 20% on the low end, 35% in the middle, 50% on the high end.
