eDiscovery Offerings for the Challenges of Construction

Comprehensive Solutions to Meet the Complex Needs of Construction Litigation

HaystackID’s tailored eDiscovery services are designed to address the unique demands of the construction industry. From advanced data collection tools to AI-powered document reviews, our solutions help legal teams manage the complexity and volume of construction project data.

Specialized Data Collection and Processing

Accurate Data Capture for Complex Construction Projects

Managing data from construction projects requires specialized tools and expertise. HaystackID offers advanced forensic collection services that capture and preserve data from proprietary project management platforms (such as Procore and PlanGrid), mobile devices, and other critical data sources used on construction sites. This collection service capability ensures that key project data, including daily logs, schedules, and communications, is accurately collected for legal review.

Navigate Complex Digital Files

Construction litigation often involves complex digital files like CAD (Computer-Aided Design) drawings and BIM (Building Information Modeling) files. HaystackID has the technical capability to process these specialized formats, which are critical in resolving disputes over design changes, defects, and project scope modifications.

Efficiently Manage Visual Evidence

Additionally, construction sites are often documented through extensive images and videos. HaystackID’s image and video processing capabilities ensure that large volumes of visual media are organized, authenticated, and reviewed efficiently. Our experts can extract metadata such as geolocation and timestamps to verify the context of the visual evidence.

AI-Driven Analytics and Document Review

Harness the Power of AI to Simplify Construction eDiscovery

In the construction industry, disputes frequently involve enormous amounts of unstructured data, from contracts and change orders to emails and daily reports. HaystackID leverages artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning to accelerate the document review process. These technologies enable legal teams to quickly identify key documents, reducing the time and cost of manual review.

Enhance eDiscovery Efficiency with Predictive Coding and TAR

Predictive coding and Technology-Assisted Review (TAR) further enhance the efficiency of eDiscovery. By automatically categorizing documents based on relevance, these tools help construction legal teams focus on the most critical information while minimizing the need for time-consuming manual review.

Simplify Data Analysis with Visualization Tools

To simplify the analysis of complex construction data, HaystackID offers data visualization tools to provide clear visual representations of timeline progressions, communication flows, and project relationships, giving legal teams and project managers a better understanding of the underlying data and helping to inform litigation strategy.

Collaborative Cloud-Based eDiscovery Solutions

Secure Cloud Platforms for Construction Litigation Collaboration

Construction projects involve numerous stakeholders, including contractors, subcontractors, engineers, consultants, and suppliers. HaystackID provides secure cloud-based eDiscovery platforms, such as RelativityOne, which allow for seamless collaboration across geographically dispersed teams while maintaining the highest levels of security.

Secure Multi-Party Access

The platform’s multi-party access controls ensure that different stakeholders can securely access the data they need without compromising confidentiality. These security measures are especially important in construction litigation, where sensitive data must be shared among multiple parties without risking data breaches or unauthorized access.
