Electronic Discovery Reference Model Project Launched

By ALM Staff | Law Journal Newsletters |
June 27, 2005

A group of 29 organizations has formed a group that will follow an open process to develop a reference model describing the concepts and relationships that comprise the electronic discovery processes. Called the Electronic Discovery Reference Model Project, the group will develop The Electronic Discovery Reference Model (EDRM) that will provide a common, flexible and extensible framework for the development, selection, evaluation and use of electronic discovery products and services.

The project, announced on May 25, 2005, was launched to address a substantial “pain” in the ED market. That problem, the lack of standards and guidelines, was identified in the 2003 and 2004 Socha-Gelbmann Electronic Discovery Surveys as a major concern for vendors and consumers alike.
