Dear Mr. Rinker

Per your last comments, I am forwarding specific revised Class 42 identifications for your initial review before responding to the outstanding Office Actions. Each of the following two groupings of applications share the same issues in the identification of services as follows:

        GROUP 1                 GROUP 2
        SN 77267714                     SN 77248392
        SN 77267680                     SN 77248414
                                SN 77267720
                                SN 77267704

GROUP 1
Each of the following four applications were filed in class 42 for the same identification of services:

SN 77267714
SN 77267680
SN 77267720
SN 77267704

The original identification of services in each reads as follows:

"Engineering services; providing information technology services in the fields of military defense, intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance, homeland security, weapon systems support and maintenance, avionics and space programs; providing design, development, deployment, integration and management of communications and information networks; providing mission critical engineering and information technology services to governmental agencies; consulting in the fields of engineering, information technology services, network engineering, range and technical services, and enterprise solutions and integration; on-line system management services that allow users to remotely view, monitor, program, operate and control electrical systems, environmental, access and security systems in homes, offices and buildings."

The proposed amended identification of services reads as follows:

"Engineering services; providing mission critical engineering and information technology services, namely, software and software application design, development, implementation and maintenance, independent verification and validation, selection and procurement of commercial off-the-shelf software to meet customer needs, developing and implementing safeguards and controls for security, continuing operations and disaster recovery for computer networks, operating network operations centers for the government, customizing email systems for the customer, hosting data and maintaining servers, all in the fields of military defense, intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance, homeland security, weapon systems support and maintenance, avionics and space programs to governmental agencies;

providing design, development, deployment, namely technology insertion coupled with integration of legacy systems with new platforms and upgrades, integration and management of computer and telecommunications information networks;

consulting in the fields of engineering, computer and telecommunications network engineering and information technology services, namely, software and software application design, development, implementation and maintenance, independent verification and validation, selection and procurement of commercial off-the-shelf software to meet customer needs, developing and implementing safeguards and controls for security, continuing operations and disaster recovery for computer networks, operating network operations centers for the government, customizing email systems for the customer, hosting data and maintaining servers, all in the fields of military defense, intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance, homeland security, weapon systems support and maintenance, avionics and space programs;

range and technical services, namely, providing support to the military on military bases and missile ranges in the areas of logistics, test and evaluation through actual and simulated flying and towing of aerial target planes and drones, weapon system performance analysis, depot operations, and weapons system requirements analysis; and business enterprise solutions and integration of disparate protective building technologies, namely, fire alarm systems, sprinkler systems, nurse-call systems, and other types of protective technologies;

on-line system management services that allow users to remotely view, monitor, program, operate and control electrical systems, environmental, access and security systems in homes, offices and buildings."

GROUP 2

Each of the following two applications were filed in class 42 for the same identification of services:

SN 77248392

SN 77248414

"Engineering services; consulting in the fields of engineering, information technology services, network engineering, range and technical services, and enterprise solutions and integration; on-line system management services that allow users to remotely view, monitor, program, operate and control electrical systems, environmental, access and security systems in homes, offices and buildings."

The proposed amended identification of services reads as follows:

"Engineering services;

consulting in the fields of engineering, computer and telecommunications network engineering and information technology services, namely, software and software application design, development, implementation and maintenance, independent verification and validation, selection and procurement of commercial off-the-shelf software to meet customer needs, developing and implementing safeguards and controls for security, continuing operations and disaster recovery for computer networks, operating network operations centers for the government, customizing email systems for the customer, hosting data and maintaining servers, all in the fields of military defense, intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance, homeland security, weapon systems support and maintenance, avionics and space programs;
