Inventec Corporation maintains a company patent portfolio with 23 pending office actions in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. These actions are distributed across 13 distinct art units, showing a diverse range of technical interests within the mechanical and systems sectors. The prosecution involves 22 distinct examiners, which indicates that nearly every pending action is being reviewed by a different individual.
LU, ZHIYU is the busiest examiner, managing 2 pending office actions, while the remaining actions are spread among the other distinct examiners. This high ratio of examiners to actions suggests that the applicant must manage a wide variety of examiner styles and interpretations. With 13 distinct art units in play, the portfolio faces a broad array of examination standards, requiring a flexible and multifaceted prosecution strategy to address the 23 pending office actions effectively. The concentration of 2 actions under LU, ZHIYU represents the only opportunity for a slightly more consolidated approach within this otherwise fragmented portfolio.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 4 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. 4 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 (5%) |
| §101 + other | 6 (27%) |
| §103 only | 5 (23%) |
| §102 only | 1 (5%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 9 (41%) |
