EMC SourceOne eDiscovery


EMC Kazeon for Legal Service Providers

The practice and management of the e-discovery process is complex and time consuming. Some organizations bring the eDiscovery process in-house, some outsource their eDiscovery to an Legal Service Provider (LSP), while others choose a hybrid approach- and use a combination of both. Many corporations rely on LSP’s to provide the expertise required during the eDiscovery process.

Companies integrate LSPs into their eDiscovery processes because they struggle to keep up with the requirements of the courts and the management of the ever increasing volume and sources of electronically stored information.  This has created new and complimentary revenue opportunities for LSPs. They can now extend their service offerings behind the client firewall to address their client needs and well position themselves from an overall eDiscovery services standpoint. 

To address today’s eDiscovery challenges, EMC Corporation introduces two business models to facilitate the delivery of eDiscovery services. Deployed and administered behind the client firewall they provide the following:

  • Early Case Assessment
  • Legal Hold & Duty to Preserve notification
  • Preparation for Rule 26 Meet and Confer sessions,
  • Advanced ESI culling
  • Surgical identification and collection of data
The EMC Legal Service Provider Business Model options include:

Backpack - The Backpack model is a mobile system designed to be deployed and managed by the LSP on an engagement basis behind the client firewall to provide Early Case Assessment, advanced culling and surgical collection. For the LSP, the Backpack model increases the LSP’s chances of securing additional services including hosed review. The corporate client gains early visibility into the case data required to make timely and informed decisions while reducing the volume of data for hosted review

Key benefits of the Backpack model include:
  • Repeatable engagement model
  • Mobile solution with a small footprint housed on a small server (physical/virtual) or robust laptop
  • Easily connect to a wide variety of ESI sources including file shares, laptops, SharePoint, Exchange, Notes, Enterprise Vault, SourceOne Email and Documentum
  • Highly scalable to multiple terabytes of data
  • Pre-configured datamaps for Meet and Confer preparation
  • Advanced analytics and intelligent culling
  • Web-based access for remote management and collaboration

Managed eDiscovery Services – This behind the firewall model combines the benefits of an in-house eDiscovery solution with the expert management (remote/on premise) provided by the  LSP all on an operating expense (annual / monthly) billing basis. This model eliminates the need for companies to make a large capital investment and allocate resources to manage and maintain their eDiscovery solution. The corporate client also benefits from having a solution expertly managed on an ongoing basis by the LSP. The LSP in turn gets a recurring revenue business and the ability to uniquely position themselves to secure the downstream review of their client’s data.

Benefits of the Managed eDiscovery Services Model include:
  • Managed eDiscovery and litigation preparedness
  • Predictable revenue stream
  • Quickly connect to a wide variety of ESI sources
  • Highly scalable solution can process multiple terabytes
  • Targeted collection reduces the volume of data leaving the premises and that which is subject to hosted review
  • Web-based access for remote management and operation
  • Forensically sound operation including search reports, audit reports, manifest, data verification
  • Advanced analytics and intelligent culling
  • Output files in native, Concordance, LextraNet, EDRM XML(1.0) formats for hosted review ingestion
