Unlock Microsoft's
eDiscovery capability
We can help you identify how to utilise Microsoft eDiscovery tools for maximum impact, train business users to be able to perform investigations confidently and defensibly or we can provide you with on-demand access to our eDiscovery specialists to provide an outsourced service working within your Microsoft environment.
eDiscovery Standard provides the necessary tools for efficient and defensible identification, preservation and collection. eDiscovery Premium extends this capability with tools to enable processing, analysis and the initial review stages, in particular the ability to cull and reduce your data intelligently.
For legal teams, this is the point where content will be exported to a 3rd party tool, with the benefit that there will be less data (size-wise), but it will be more relevant due to the in-place processing that has already been completed. Less data to ingest and review means less overhead for legal teams and less cost for any 3rd party tools or vendors you may need.

End-to-end outsourced service
Like many specialist tools, Microsoft Purview eDiscovery works best with an experienced hand at the tiller. Our team can help set your Purview ship on course and train your team to sail it confidently, or we can crew it with our own specialists to harness its full potential on demand.
Identification
Parties have a legal duty to preserve relevant information when litigation becomes likely. We can provide a maturity assessment and insights to support information governance activities that streamline the identification phase.

Preservation and collection
After potentially relevant information is identified, it needs to be protected from spoliation, gathered and centralised. We can train in-house teams to ensure the file contents and metadata aren’t altered as a result of the collection process and it is legally defensible.

Processing
At the processing phase, information is prepared for attorney analysis. We can provide on-demand access to our eDiscovery specialists who can deploy their advanced analytics skills within your Microsoft environment.

Analysis
The analysis phase of eDiscovery involves the use of artificial intelligence (AI) tools to identify relevant and non-relevant documents, construct email threads and gain insight from unstructured data. Our outsourced eDiscovery service provides access to our eDiscovery team, who are adept at using AI tooling to deliver relevant insights, faster.

Review
The Review stage of the EDRM involves evaluating information for relevance and attorney/client privilege. This may be the point where content is exported to a 3rd party tool for review by an external law firm. Our Microsoft eDiscovery service can extend to include use of our Reveal platform for external review.
