When you see the e, think options.

At Encore, our electronic discovery solution is based on our ten plus years of experience working closely with our clients to understand their needs. As an open source or technology agnostic service provider, we do not believe there is one tool or processing solution that is right for every case. Our experience will help us design the most efficient and cost-effective solution for you. Through our local service and support we will improve the effectiveness of your projects. Whether it’s data processing, document review or productions, when you have electronic discovery needs, think Encore!

STEP 1. Data Analysis and Cost Estimation (Free & Accurate)

Before you begin to formulate an eDiscovery strategy, you and your client need an accurate indication of what the data set entails along with an idea of what the project is going to cost. Call your local Encore consultant for an assessment of the data, and Encore will quickly provide the reports you need to begin designing a data conversion strategy...FREE OF CHARGE.

The reports include: all file types in the data set, volume of data within each type, estimated number of pages in the data set, an estimated processing time, and an estimate of the total cost to process the data into a reviewable format.

STEP 2. Choose a Data Conversion Strategy (Native File or Full Conversion)

Encore helps you choose the data processing solution that’s right for your case.

The first critical step is to decide if you want to review the documents in their native file format, or convert them to a standard image format prior to beginning your review. We are equally adept at providing either solution or a hybrid of the two. Our focus is to help you understand the benefits and weaknesses of each review solution, so you can choose the option that is best for you.

STEP 3. Choose a Data Minimization Strategy (Deduplication, Filtering & Near Duping)

The world of electronic evidence often produces a staggering number of documents that have to be reviewed in a short period of time. A data minimization strategy is a key component to successfully reducing the amount of documents that will have to be reviewed.

We offer the latest technologies available for filtering and culling data. We filter documents by file type, date, and keywords. We remove exact duplicates within custodians and suppress exact duplicates globally or across custodians. We have near-duping technology that organizes similar documents into groups to increase the efficiency of your review. Using these technologies will help eliminate the data not relevant to your case before you even start your document review.

STEP 4. Choose a Review Strategy

We will help you design a review strategy that addresses your timeframe constraints and meets your economic needs. We can create a solution utilizing your in-house system, or help you develop a hosted Web-based strategy.

Encore offers multiple review solutions including: Conceptual Organization, Conceptual Search, or Linear based reviews. Encore has a solution that fits all budgets and timeframe constraints. If you are interested in hosting and maintaining the data yourself in a software package that you already own, we will process the data to be delivered into that system. Our enterprise class hosting facility is always ready to host your case with a guaranteed 99.998% uptime. Our hosting facilities are located in a state of the art fully redundant co-location facility. Access to our dedicated 24/7 technical staff ensures that you receive the best support in the industry on all cases hosted with Encore. Encore currently has over 3500 active databases totaling more than 50 terabytes of storage in multiple review platforms.

Encore hosted review options:
• Concordance FYI, FYI Reviewer, Opticon
• iCONECTnxt
• Caselogistix
• Concordance FYI with Syngence Synthetix
• Attenex Patterns

STEP 5. Choose a Production Strategy (Accurate & On Time)

Encore was founded on service and local support. We understand the pace, importance, and logistics of document productions. Our national presence allows us to deliver on all your production requirements.

Encore can deliver TIFF, PDF, or native file productions. We will produce databases that will meet your cases agreed upon specifications. With offices in seven cities, we can handle your local or national paper productions as well.

STEP 6. Accurate, Legally Defensible Reporting

Accurately accounting for every document in a data set is the critical step towards building a defensible process.

At Encore, we provide a set of reports in a html hyperlinked format that accurately account for the processed files, non-processed files, exceptions, duplicate files, and filtering results. We understand that accurate reporting is essential to the overall management of your case. Accurate and timely reports provide information to help make educated decisions about your cases. The better you understand your data set the more effective your decision-making becomes.
