<p>"More and more corporations and law firms need granular, actionable metrics around the review stage," said <span class="xn-person">Christine Taylor</span>, Analyst at Taneja Group. "But wanting and getting are two different things. Applied Discovery is coming out of the gate with a mature module for actionable and sustainable review management that tracks quality and quantity by review and project, enables what-if scenarios for process optimization,  and monitors status and looming deadlines in real-time. This level of review management controls costs and improves outcome of e-discovery's most complex and expensive stage."</p>
<p/>
<p>"The task of document review conducted by legal reviewers usually is the most time consuming and costly of all the core electronic discovery tasks with reviewer staffing costs typically being at least four times greater than the cost of analytics and processing phases," shared <span class="xn-person">Jon Resnick</span>, vice president of field operations and marketing at Applied Discovery. "With the Review Performance Module, electronic discovery professionals can now rapidly and accurately leverage pre-review, ongoing review, and post-review metrics [i] to plan, estimate and adjust review activities to achieve desired cost, time, and quality outcomes."</p>
<p/>
<p>Accessible from the Applied Discovery Online Review Application, the Review Performance Module provides users actionable capabilities to include:</p>
<pre>
    

    --  Analyze real-time document review metrics.
    --  Capture budget allocation at project outset, and track through life of
        the project.
    --  Track accuracy for each reviewer.
    --  Investigate time to completion based on actual review rates and
        staffing levels.
    --  Optimize review capability by modeling staff, time, and cost
scenarios.
    --  Note project deadlines and monitor real time project status in
relation
        to deadlines.
