The Boeing Company has 217 pending office actions in Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems. The docket spans 198 distinct examiners and 115 distinct art units, creating broad distribution across the examination organization. The difference between examiner and art-unit coverage indicates that some art units contain matters handled by more than one examiner.
PAGE, HANA C is the busiest examiner, with 4 pending matters. That concentration is limited relative to the overall docket, so prosecution management likely requires portfolio-level coordination rather than reliance on a small number of examiner relationships. The art-unit spread also supports using technology-specific issue tracking alongside individual matter review.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 49 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. 49 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 | 11 (5%) |
| §101 + other | 32 (15%) |
| §103 only | 68 (33%) |
| §102 only | 8 (4%) |
| §112 only | 8 (4%) |
| Double-patenting only | 2 (1%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 3 (1%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 75 (36%) |
| No statute on record | 1 (0%) |
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.
