Performing efficient, cost-effective, and spoliation-free electronic discovery for legal proceedings and regulatory inquiries has become a key enterprise concern.  Non-compliance has resulted in sanctions, damaged corporate reputations, and the replacement of General Counsels on the losing side.

When e-discovery responses are treated as one-off events, unnecessary fire drills are created, raising consistency and defensibility concerns, and increasing overall litigation risks and costs.  As a result, IT departments are looking for better ways of supporting their corporate law departments in managing e-discovery to avoid all of these concerns.  IT can create predictable outcomes while reducing cost and risk.
