Wave Software and iFramework Formalize Strategic Partnership

July 30, 2009 - PRLog -- ORLANDO, FL and WASHINGTON, DC - Orlando-based Wave Software, an innovator in the de-duplication, near-duplicate detection, regeneration and export of native electronic data and iFramework, a recognized leader in providing a collaborative project management solution for litigation support departments, today jointly announced a strategic partnership that will integrate iFramework with Wave Software’s Trident Pro.

Trident Pro integrates seamlessly into the law firm, corporate legal or legal service provider’s current workflow processes. It allows users to review electronic data in a standard review tool and isolate the responsive data that can then be delivered to opposing counsel in their native file format. The industry-first, built-in Native Review Bridge capability automatically maps fields and loads data from Trident Pro into common review platforms including CT Summation, Concordance and iCONECT.

iFramework has established itself as a leader in the litigation project management space. It is currently being used by AmLaw 100 law firms to manage work flow, tasks, calendars, evidence, vendors and invoices. Now, with the release of version 5.0, iFramework also integrates with automated processes and tools, especially Trident Pro, to allow an unprecedented view into the discovery lifecycle.

Now, as Trident Pro filters and culls discovery data, including foreign language documents, PSTs, NSFs and loose files, iFramework will provide near-real-time metrics on the tasks being performed within Trident Pro. This integration will allow project managers to better control projects and meet deadlines because the metrics of their projects being processed in Trident Pro will be easily accessible and continually updated within iFramework. Managers will have access to project data, down to a custodian level, including processing status, volume, and speed. Managers will have the ability to track and resource balance multiple instances of Trident Pro, running on the same or varied projects, all from one central location that also integrates with the tracking of team members, tasks, calendars and evidence.

“We are excited about our partnership with iFramework,” said Richard Clark, Director of Business Development for Wave Software. “The size of data being processed is growing at astronomical rates and our focus is to keep discovery costs down and save our clients time. This can be achieved by integrating iFramework, which provides our clients real-time metrics of processing speeds.”

“Our clients have told us that their greatest needs are consistency in their projects, a central location for all project information, and visibility into the management of their projects. iFramework now gives them that. Our workflow and task management provides that consistency. Our hosted multi-tenancy system provides that central location—for tasks, communications, document management and more. Finally, our new SNAP protocol and graphic dashboards give them that insight into people and into processes. Now, with our integration with Trident Pro, you can see into those processes, where you run one copy of Trident Pro, or 100 copies,” said John Rowley, Director of iFramework.

Recently Wave Software released interactive searching, which will allow attorneys to make a determination about their search terms and criteria by providing an immediate report on their list of keywords.
