    /24-7PressRelease/ - HOUSTON, TX, August 17, 2007 - eDirect Impact, Inc., an information management consulting firm providing e-Discovery and Discovery Workflow Management solutions to corporate counsel, law firms, and businesses, has announced the introduction of a new capability for grouping of near-duplicate files. The near-duping offering uses technology from Equivio.

Sami Rahman, Chief Executive Officer of eDirect Impact, Inc. said, "eDirect Impact is committed to reducing the time, complexity, and expense of discovery and litigation as a whole. Near-duping is an important component in delivering this vision. In trials of the software, we have seen review costs reduced by 25% and more."

eDirect Impact is providing the near-duping capability as part of its Data Analytics consulting service and in conjunction with its eDiscovery Direct solution. eDiscovery Direct is built around a litigation best-practice model and is a fully web-enabled electronic discovery service, accessible from any desktop with internet access. eDiscovery Direct reduces the time, effort, and expense associated with the review and production phase of electronic discovery, and is the first service of its kind to offer full data conversion and near-duping services via the internet. In addition, eDirect Impact is currently implementing Equivio's new email thread tool, and will be one of the first discovery vendors to offer the service.

Rick Weber, Esq., President of eDirect Impact, added, "Litigation is about effective case management. It's here that eDirect's Data Analytics services and Equivio come into play. Equivio's technology suppresses data redundancies while isolating the unique data in each document. This streamlines the review process and allows attorneys to more efficiently focus their energies on the analytical and strategic elements of litigation. Without this service, the time and costs associated with many cases can be inflated way out of proportion."
