CT Summation Announces Compliance with EDRM XML Import and Export Standard for e-Discovery.

Market leader in litigation support and e-Discovery software among the first to adopt new standard for greater interoperability and data transfer throughout discovery process

SAN FRANCISCO -- CT Summation, a leader in litigation support and electronic data discovery solutions, today announced compliance of CT Summation Enterprise and Discovery Cracker with the new Extensible Markup Language (XML) standard, developed by the Electronic Discovery Reference Model (EDRM) group. CT Summation Enterprise, a production and review tool designed for managing large cases, utilizes the XML standard to improve interoperability with the import of electronically stored information (ESI), and CT Summation Discovery Cracker, a powerful and automated e-Discovery processing and delivery tool, utilizes the XML standard to improve interoperability with the export of electronically stored information (ESI) between applications involved in the discovery process.

The EDRM XML-compliant CT Summation Enterprise and Discovery Cracker software products provide the following benefits:

* Lower labor costs: IT departments, legal teams and service providers can significantly reduce the amount of manual effort spent transferring ESI from system to system;

* Fewer errors: Organizations can focus their efforts on a single standard schema--versus multiple schemas--to transfer ESI from system to system, reducing errors;

* Faster e-Discovery: The ability to efficiently transfer data leads to a faster, streamlined end-to-end e-Discovery process;

* Greater flexibility: Organizations have the freedom to choose "best-of-breed" products that offer interoperability, versus inferior products that must be pieced together.

"The development of the EDRM XML standard shows a changing of the tides in the world of e-Discovery best practices," said George J. Socha, principal analyst with Socha Consulting and co-founder of the EDRM Project. "By implementing a standard way of managing the collaboration between technologies, EDRM has capitalized on the industry's readiness to work together and move the entire industry forward."

CT Summation was an "early adopter" participant in the development of the XML Schema Definition (XSD) as part of an EDRM XML Project working group, consisting of technologists and lawyers from the leading e-Discovery vendors, service providers, law firms and corporate end-users. The XSD allows all parties to consistently describe documents, email, attachments and standalone files, as well as the underlying metadata for all of those objects as they move through the e-Discovery process.

"Law firms and corporate legal departments need to be able to perform e-Discovery tasks in a faster, more accurate, more affordable, and more flexible manner," said Tom Rump, vice president of Litigation Solutions for Wolters Kluwer Corporate Legal Services. "This EDRM XML standard, which we fully support and helped pioneer, is helping the legal community achieve this."
