The eDiscovery Pricing Survey (Summer 2020)
Based on the complexity of data and legal discovery, it is a continual challenge to fully understand what is representative of industry-standard pricing for the delivery of eDiscovery products and services. With this challenge in mind, the eDiscovery Pricing Survey is designed to provide insight into eDiscovery pricing through the lens of 15 specific pricing questions answered by legal, business, and information technology professionals operating in the eDiscovery ecosystem. The non-scientific, non-comprehensive, and multiple-choice survey is focused on establishing a pricing baseline for a specific selection of collection, processing, and review tasks. The survey is not designed to be all-inclusive but developed to provide a general overview of the pricing landscape with a market basket of eDiscovery offerings that can be analyzed over time to help establish an eDiscovery Pricing Index (eDPI*) that will be reported systematically. The eDiscovery Market Basket for the survey consists of the following offerings: Collection- Per Hour Cost for Collection by a Forensic Examiner
- Per Device Cost for Collection by a Forensic Examiner
- Per Hour Cost for Analysis, Affidavit, and Expert Witness Support by a Forensic Examiner
- Per GB Cost to Process ESI (At Ingestion)
- Per GB Cost to Process ESI (At Export)
- Per GB Per Month Cost to Host ESI Without Analytics
- Per GB Per Month Cost to Host ESI With Analytics
- Per Month Cost Per User License for Access to Hosted Data
- Per Hour Cost for Project Management Support
- Per GB Cost for Predictive Coding
- Per Hour Cost for Document Review Attorney Review
