The company patent portfolio for Tangoe US Inc. currently shows 4 pending office actions within the Computing & Software technology area. These actions are distributed across 4 distinct examiners and 4 distinct art units, indicating a diverse range of technical subject matter. CHOU, ALAN S is the busiest examiner for the portfolio, currently overseeing 1 busiest examiner pending office action. This spread of 4 pending office actions across 4 distinct examiners suggests that the company is not facing a bottleneck with any single individual.
For a practitioner, the use of 4 distinct art units means that the prosecution strategy must be tailored to different technical standards within the Computing & Software field. Because 1 busiest examiner pending action is the maximum handled by any one person, the portfolio's progress is not overly dependent on CHOU, ALAN S. This distribution across 4 distinct art units provides a broader base for the company's intellectual property strategy. Managing 4 pending office actions requires coordination to ensure consistent messaging across the different examiners. This profile for Tangoe US Inc. reflects a diversified approach to its ongoing patent prosecution efforts.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 2 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
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.
