Analysis

Sage Products LLC has 13 pending office actions in Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems. Those matters are distributed among 10 distinct examiners and 8 distinct art units, indicating that prosecution is spread across several examination groups rather than concentrated in one location.

ORTIZ, ADAM C is the busiest examiner, handling 3 pending matters. The examiner assignment is therefore a meaningful point for focused review, but the distribution across other examiners means a single examiner strategy will not address the full portfolio.

The art-unit spread suggests that counsel should organize tracking by both technology and examination group. Responses may require consistent claim and disclosure positions across matters while still accounting for different examiner practices. The portfolio data supports centralized oversight with matter-specific preparation.
