e-Discovery Request for Proposal (RFP)

e-Discovery RFP: Overview

Selecting the right e-discovery provider has never been more important - from both a quality and cost perspective. And since digital information only continues to grow - this is now more critical than ever to get right. 

An e-discovery Request For Proposal (RFP) is a specialized solicitation and management tool designed to capture an e-discovery provider's capabilities, experience, and cost competitiveness.  An effective e-discovery RFP can compare each vendor in a standardized, data-driven manner in order to find the e-discovery vendor that best fits a legal department's requirements.

Argopoint's experience with the e-discovery RFP process helps us assess the optimal e-discovery vendor for our client's needs - and can save clients 10-40% on the total cost of ownership.

e-Discovery RFP: Objectives

A comprehensive and detailed e-discovery RFP is necessary to accurately assess the gap between a legal department's needs and an e-discovery vendor's capabilities.

 Many legal departments find outside expertise and assistance beneficial for some or all the e-discovery RFP process. A consultant with knowledge of legal technology can conduct a technology assessment to diagnosis needs and develop a strategy and a technology road-map for the department. A consultant may also be helpful in the vendor selection process. Since there are always multiple options, a consultant can assist with the process evaluating proposals, and, as needed, create ROI financial model to measure costs and validate needed investments.
