We have a full array of software tools available to our consultants and project managers to help reduce your dataset BEFORE document review begins in earnest.
Our optional preflight process will simultaneously scan your ESI for irrelevant file types, duplicate files,
corrupt files and files that may be candidates for special handling. This report helps you make culling / processing decisions and budget projections.
Eliminate system files and other worthless binary files from the collection before processing.
Restrict documents based on date before processing.
Filter out documents based on specific file types before processing.
Eliminate duplicate documents within a given custodian or across the universe.
We help you develop the best possible search methodology. This normally includes iterative searching and reporting and review of result sets of "Hits" and "Non-Hits".
Statistically significant sample sets are published to E-Direct® for client review. Our consultants guide this process and recommend adjustments to the search methodology,
until we agree that additional time will not improve results. We use the information learned in this step to effectively cull the universe of data. This approach can significantly
reduce cost by trimming review time, and hosting costs.
