Siemens Energy AG has 37 pending office actions in Chemistry & Materials. The portfolio involves 37 distinct examiners and 28 distinct art units, so every pending action has a separate examiner assignment while some art units contain multiple matters. This structure requires broad matter-level coordination and selective art-unit issue tracking.
CAHILL, JESSICA MARIE is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending action. No examiner concentration is shown, making standardized review procedures and consistent technical positions more useful than a single-examiner strategy.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 11 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. 11 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 + other | 2 (6%) |
| §103 only | 12 (33%) |
| §102 only | 1 (3%) |
| §112 only | 2 (6%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 1 (3%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 18 (50%) |
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.
