Case Study: Euro Commission Productions Delivered
-min.avif)
Client Challenge
One of the largest multinational chemical companies was facing several inquiries by the European Commission looking at the company’s business practices. Our clients faced several challenges posed by:
- Large volume, over one terabyte of raw data, collected by the client’s in-house IT department.
- Highly sensitive documents collected from Board Members requiring very controlled review process.
- Need for tight coordination between client’s general counsel & legal team, European Commission, opposing party, outside counsel for the matter, and Consilio project and review teams.
- Tight deadlines to review large set of documents and need for a secured workflow.
- Extreme need to control privileged and sensitive information from being disseminated outside controlled workflow.
Consilio Response
Collaborating with the client and outside counsel, we implemented a customized workflow to conform to the client’s specific security concerns, ensure a quality review while driving down the total cost. Coordinated between client’s general counsel, matter-specific legal team, outside counsel and review teams, Consilio:
- Received over one terabyte of collected data from the client’s in-house IT department and processed using smart culling to host approximately 270 gigabytes of data (a 73.6% reduction).
- Two review solutions were established for the project: one leveraging Consilio’s enhanced Relativity workspace and a secured, on-client-site review environment specifically for highly sensitive review of client’s board-level documents.
- Data responsive to the European Commission’s Request for Information was exported from the on-site solution to Consilio’s secured environment for production. Client custodians were granted access and reviewed their documents in compartmentalized security groups.
- Consilio applied privileged terms, generated productions meeting European Commission & client’s specifications.
Results Achieved
- Meeting the mandated timelines of the Request for Information and client’s requirements, our Consilio Brussels operation delivered a total of 6 productions on-time to the European Commission on secured hard-drive media.
- Compartmentalized review workflows and technology infrastructure successfully addressed client’s concerns regarding highly sensitive board-level documents.
- Efficient workflows, rigorous quality control and tight coordination ensured client was able to balance a high level discovery process with controlled costs.
