KNOW-HOW MAKES THE DIFFERENCE
The short timeline necessitated a sizeable review team proficient in eDiscovery technology, and the client’s fixed budget made accurate and reliable project estimates essential.
Our Project Management team estimated the scope and run rate, calculating efficiency gains with analytics and machine learning into their project proposal. This enabled delivery of a project price that was 65 percent lower than the client had expected.
Using the client’s desired technology platform, the team deployed advanced analytics to generate targeted batches of documents. As the documents were coded and the eDiscovery team became more familiar with the case, the software’s machine learning capabilities refined the batches, regularly suggesting documents that were likely to be relevant for review. In addition, our Review Managers leveraged machine learning to help QC and verify coding consistency across the project.
