Currently, sophisticated organizations realize that implementing a robust information governance and strategic discovery management program is critical to their long-term business strategy, particularly in heavily-regulated and litigious industries.
Beyond the critical importance of adequately responding to administrative hearings or litigation, these decisions concern some of your most critical business assets, your data. IT-driven decisions determine the path of data creation, management, storage and, ultimately, disposition. Big announcement to lead off this Tuesday in the eDiscovery provider world! A short time ago, HaystackID and NightOwl Global announced that they have combined in a merger.While many still consider electronic discovery to be primarily a legal issue, in reality it is a critical business function as well. Here are some of the information from the press announcement issued a short time ago. The merger combines the established reach and accelerated growth trajectories of two high performing companies to deliver a comprehensive and complete set of data and legal discovery services for legal departments and law firms across the globe.” “HaystackID, a specialized eDiscovery services firm that helps corporations and law firms find, listen to, and learn from data during complex investigations and litigation, and NightOwl Global, a worldwide leader in the delivery of corporate law department enterprise data services, today announced the combining of the companies as part of a merger facilitated by majority investor and leading middle market private equity firm, Quad-C Management, Inc.
