Anacomp eDiscovery: Smart Projects
Anacomp eDiscovery Services leverage experience, technology, and leadership into eDiscovery "Smart Projects". At Anacomp, a "Smart Project" is one that considers all of the client's concerns to yield an eDiscovery solution that fits the client's goals. Those concerns include time, budget, quality management, proportionality and defensibility.
Our clients are major law firms, government agencies, and corporate law departments. They count on us to deliver predictable results at reasonable cost.
What We Do
We go onsite to help clients identify, preserve and collect Electronically Stored Information (ESI). We provide tailored solutions, metrics, strategic insight, and tactical advantage with Anacomp Early Case Assessment Services. We help lawyers get ready for Meet-and-Confer. Sometimes we provide expert testimony to support motion practice. We take in nearly every form of data and we produce output in every conceivable format. And we process and host ESI and paper-based documents in the award-winning CaseLogistixTM software.
Who We Are
Anacomp is a leading eDiscovery and information management company with forty years of experience managing paper and data for its major corporate clients. We leverage proven infrastructure, best-in-class technologies, and experienced and dedicated people. We partner with our clients to unburden business processes, reduce operational expense, and improve information flow and quality at the lowest possible total cost of ownership. We bring this history and mission to our Litigation Support and eDiscovery Services.
The Smart Project Approach
Litigation professionals face increasing challenges of cost and defensibility. The challenges compound with the unprecedented growth and diversity of electronically stored information.
Anacomp meets these challenges with a comprehensive approach to eDiscovery, from initial complaint through trial preparation; from identification of ESI through production. We apply analysis and method to every aspect of the work. We help our clients achieve a proportionate and defensible result.
Targeted and Purposeful
Anacomp has the technology and tools to perform almost every kind of heavy lifting. But we know that using only those tools does not achieve a proportionate and defensible result. We rely on our experience and we apply a methodology to help our clients identify the right data to collect, validated by the appropriate group of custodians and likely witnesses, supported by legal team consensus, and defensible by testing and validation. Among our services are:
- Assistance with preservation, litigation holds, and litigation hold validation
- Targeted or forensic image collection of desktops, laptops, email, file storage systems, and specialized or structured data systems
- Data triage, processing and creation of searchable databases, using Anacomp
ECA services
or alone, to quantify and manage complex and voluminous ESI
Client-Centric
Anacomp Early Case Assessment Services delivers consulting and technology to help our clients achieve clarity about cost and risk. Anacomp ECA Services are customized to a client's goals.
Make Decisions: Each client determines what kinds of information it needs to project a budget, to establish a deadline, or to make tactical and legal decisions. Anacomp guides its clients to the metrics and reports it needs to support its decisions.
Reduce Volume: Anacomp ECA is a managed process that includes technologies to support quick and defensible search, to allow pre-screening and selection prior to first-pass review, and to provide testing, validation, and documentation of search and selection criteria.
Defensible, Proportionate and Cost Effective
CaseLogistix is Anacomp's flagship litigation support software. It enables legal teams to quickly review, analyze and produce digital evidence. Available as a software platform and a hosted service, CaseLogistix provides a highly scalable, powerful and flexible solution for eDiscovery challenges.
Hosted CaseLogistix Services provide a managed workflow which tightly integrates with other stages of your case cycle. These services, along with CaseLogistix, enable legal teams to manage their productions efficiently post-production and during depositions. They provide a highly scalable, powerful and flexible solution from early case review through every phase of complex litigation. CaseLogistix is fully Unicode compliant and is able to recognize all foreign language character sets.
CaseLogistix handles hybrid review of single and multi-page document images such as TIFFs and PDFs, and actual documents in original, unaltered native format (e.g. email, Web/XML, MS Word, Excel, PowerPoint, voice and video), or near-native format (e.g. PDF and HTML). Reviewers can access content often hidden in other review systems, content such as formulas, notes, and tracked changes. Native review greatly accelerates review speed. TIFF conversion can be put off until production, if required at all, and then done only as needed for production.
Rich in Feature and Function
CaseLogistix reviewers appreciate the ease and flexibility of training, use, and batch handling.
Review managers like having both ESI and paper-based documents in the same system. They appreciate the workflows for first-, second-, and QC-pass review. They use IntelliFoldersTM to cluster together similar content and optimize the efficiency of the review. They use CaseLogistix automated real-time reports for review status, productivity, and cost tracking. They rely on the 24 x 7 support from the Anacomp Help Desk.
Litigation Support Project Managers count on easy project startup and credentialing. CaseLogistix security groups accommodate project teams, workgroups, or individuals, and security groups may be used as templates from project to project. Security is managed at the database, record, or field level.
Attorney researchers and power users like the real-time dynamic IntelliFolders for clustering around criteria such as, custodian, file type, review status, or issue tag. They count on full searchability of text and metadata, saved searches and immediately searchable notes as public or private. They depend on CaseLogistix� scalability to many millions of records and to hundreds of simultaneous reviewers.
Clients and legal team leaders like the cost-effectiveness and return on investment in using CaseLogistix, either hosted on a project or installed for multi-case use.
