eDiscovery Managed Services

Morae Global’s eDiscovery Service Bureau is a fully cloud-based solution that provides end-to-end discovery services from collection through data management and document review. Powered by Relativity/Brainspace, and Servient in Morae-managed cloud environments, our solution allows us to offer superior discovery services through disruptive service arrangements at substantially reduced costs. Our Service Bureau provides an enterprise electronic discovery solution that is highly scalable (both up and down), closely aligns with trending corporate IT strategies and data security posture and supports cross-border data privacy compliance through rapid geographic deployment and data isolation. Beyond the technology, our team of experienced data management engineers, analytics specialists and project managers works with our clients and their counsel to support and guide them throughout the discovery process.

Many companies wish to exert more control over their discovery data and operations but do not have the resources to execute on that efficiently in-house. Morae Global’s Managed Service offering is built around a discovery platform deployment within the client’s infrastructure – typically at its cloud provider – to take advantage of a service-based model and on-demand resources. Our Managed Service team provides support for collection through data management and document review. Our clients benefit through the centralization of data under corporate control, alignment with trends in corporate IT strategies, improvement of the law department and law firm’s data security posture and cost reduction. Furthermore, the managed service model ensures the consistent application of best practices across the litigation portfolio through a seasoned team of project managers and data analytics experts.

Mergers, acquisitions and divestitures present unique information management challenges. Assessing obligations, mapping the information landscape and determining data disposition and how it will be managed are all complex and time-consuming activities. Our team of experienced information management professionals leverages analytic technologies to support our clients from initial due diligence through full integration, or in the case of divestitures, from classification through the transfer and disposition of information.

With merging parties, time sensitivities and experience are crucial whether you are dealing with the HSR Second Request or the Canadian Competition Bureau’s Supplementary Information Request (SIR). In either case, a merger may provide the ideal time to adopt Morae Global’s innovative approach to information governance by deploying machine learning and other analytical tools upstream.

Collecting data in response to a discovery request or investigation can present numerous challenges and risks. Employees are geographically dispersed, internal resources do not have the domain expertise or bandwidth to meet evidentiary requirements and deadlines and evolving data sources continue to present new preservation risks. Our collection specialists are trained in industry-standard forensic collection technologies and procedures to solve these challenges and support your collection needs. Our proven methodologies are built to minimize business disruption, ensure data integrity and enforce strict chain-of-custody procedures across a wide array of data sources and repositories.

Organizations demand experience, quality and cost-efficiency in the processing, hosting and production of data in support of their discovery needs. Morae Global offers services powered by cutting-edge cloud-based technologies, which result in a significantly faster, more powerful and more cost-effective offering. Our team of experienced data management engineers and project managers works with our clients, their counsel and often opposing counsel to help define agreeable processing and production specifications and then execute in adherence to them. Our data security protocols, and standard workflows and operating procedures ensure your data, at rest or in transit, is always protected in accord with the highest standards.

As data volumes continue to grow at exponential rates, so does the need to use data analytics to drive efficiency and visibility in the discovery process. We leverage advanced analytical tools to validate collection and culling criteria, streamline reviews, shorten timelines, increase review quality and reduce settlement costs through early case assessment. Our team of experts works with you and your counsel to tailor strategies to leverage the most advanced technologies and workflows, including near duplicate detection, email threading, concept clustering and batching, document categorization, content filtering and social network analysis.

Our professionals have extensive experience managing document review projects for litigation matters, government or internal investigations, as well as HSR Second Requests. We offer both onshore and offshore document review capabilities, which enable us to provide flexible, predictable and low-cost pricing arrangements. Our services are supported by extensive analytic and quality assurance and control procedures, facilitated by cutting-edge technology, to ensure an efficient, consistent and exemplary product. Our review teams can also provide services to create review protocols, train outside counsel, apply redactions and prepare privilege logs.

We strongly believe in leveraging technology-assisted review to drive efficiencies, quality and cost savings throughout the review process. Our analytic experts work with case teams to understand the claims and scope of the matter to develop tailored TAR approaches that align with the client’s risk tolerance and case strategy. Our cloud-based technologies utilize continuous active learning to prioritize and reduce document populations, increasing the speed at which we identify important documents while simultaneously reducing the amount of human review hours required. This lowers project costs and allows case teams to more efficiently meet production deadlines and prepare for trial, arbitration or settlement conferences.
