Processing is Crucial
Our Processing Capabilities
50% Review Time Reduction
Once pre-processing has been completed, MSI uses Viewpoint’s advanced capabilities to provide the ability to filter and process large volumes of data in a fraction of the time it would normally take. With this scalable technology, our clients can begin to review and analyze data sooner, as well as perform analytics and data assessments early on in the case, before data is posted for review.
With our eDiscovery Processing Service, Mountain States Imaging can very quickly perform numerous, highly complicated tasks that historically have taken numerous software products and internal resources to accomplish, such as:
- TIFF Creation
- Optical Character Recognition (OCR)
- Cracking Encrypted Documents
- Extracting Embedded Attachments
- Generating Indexed Meta Data for Every File
- Creation of Slip sheets for Corrupted/Inappropriate Content
- HTML, Tiff, & Text Versions of MSG Files
- Much More!
Both pre-processing and processing are crucial to any review. By reducing redundant and unwanted files early, Mountain States Imaging and our eDiscovery Processing Services help save an average of 50% in review time, which saves a lot of man hours and helps work within confined budgetary constraints of your litigation.
Our eDiscovery Processing Services enable us to reduce electronic data sizes at the earliest stages in the eDiscovery lifecycle. For a fraction of full processing costs, we utilize a procedure known as de-NIST to identify all unwanted system files that have been found within a collection. These files typically do not require review and are not included in the review process.
Another pre-processing tool that we utilize is a process called de-duping, which takes any EXACT duplicates through Meta data, hash code verifications and text recognition and will link all duplicates to one version for review.
The average that has been found in most cases is between 30-40%. Imagine a collection that has hundreds of duplicates of the one document, and then imagine only having to review ONE; review just got a whole lot easier.
If your litigation has a pertinent date range that needs to be focused on, another tool we offer as part of our eDiscovery Processing Services allows us to narrow all the data collected, to only files that have been created or edited based on a certain date range.
