Managed services client case study

Project methodology

The solution that was settled upon was for Altlaw to provide servers and storage devices to be installed at the London offices of the law firm.  Working in conjunction with the IT team, Altlaw installed a processing and review system behind the law firm’s firewall and created a closed network for the review to be hosted on.  This meant that there was no way to access the system if you were not physically at the Central London law firm's offices.

With the infrastructure established, an Altlaw project manager remained on-site for the data processing and filtering over the course of three weeks.  In total, over 6 million documents were loaded into the system and submitted for filtering.

Once the data was ready for review, two separate teams of investigators were given training and set to their task.  The two review teams were kept physically apart and the review tool ensured digital separation of their workflows and work product.

Altlaw maintained a daily presence on-site until the teams were sufficiently proficient in using the technology and then visited the site on a regular basis to ensure the smooth running of the project.

At the conclusion of the project, the hardware was packaged up and sent for long-term storage to the end client, retaining the option of reactivating the project at a later date if required.

At Altlaw, we provide a range of different legal scanning solutions and other services you can take advantage of.
