Document Imaging (Scanning)
At Page One Document Services, our high speed scanners capture images of black and white or color hard copy documents with exceptional precision. Simultaneously, data such as the document number, folder descriptions, document unitization and more can be captured using prep sheets designed to client specifications for each project. Our standard deliverable includes load files for all of the major document database programs. Each completed project will also contain image viewing software that allows you to review your documents anytime and on any computer. Additional options allow you to search the text of each document and code or index the document products to help you find the important information that you are looking for, quickly and accurately.
Document Coding (Objective Coding)
Coding is the process of entering document data into a database for the purpose of locating the document in the future. The process of coding can be done by examining the paper documents (coding from paper) or from scanned images or digital copies (coding from image). Typically, we capture bibliographical document information such as author, recipient, copy, title and date. However, other information may be captured during this process such as key words or issues.
Optical Character Recognition
In order to search the text of documents and pages that we have imaged or scanned, it is necessary to convert these files into readable text. Page One Document Services uses optical character recognition (OCR) to convert this imaged text into computer readable ASCII text. This important step enables you to search all of your documents for key words or phrases, giving you a more efficient and powerful tool to find the information that you are looking for, quickly and accurately. Our experienced team takes the steps necessary during the imaging process to obtain the best possible capture of the original document in order to later conduct a successful OCR conversion.
High Speed Printing and Blowbacks
Image Blowbacks (printing): When you need to produce hard copies of electronic files, Page One Document Services functions as a full service bureau and will print or blow back your images using high speed, digital printers. Image files such as TIFF or PDF can generally be blown back using batch printing software and high speed printers. If requested, slip sheets can be inserted to indicate document breaks. Electronic files such as Microsoft Office files can be printed by trained users for optimum speed and accuracy.
Electronic Discovery Services
In today’s litigation environment, avoiding electronic documents is no longer an option. In the past few years, electronic discovery has gone from an idea to a reality. Consider the following:
- There are over 57 billion email messages sent per day
- 70 to 80 percent of all corporate data is now stored electronically
- 93 percent of all new information is being created in an electronic format
Additionally, with landmark rulings like Zubalake v. USB Warburg and Coleman v. Morgan Stanley, as well as increased regulatory scrutiny, the risks have never been greater for your firm to ensure the proper handling of electronic materials in the discovery process. At Page One, we are committed to handling your data with a level of expertise that is unmatched in the industry.
- Data Analysis: For virtually any media type, Page One will perform an analysis of the contents of that media before any data conversion if performed. Our analysis will determine the size, type, and quantity of the files either before or after extraction. This powerful tool enables our clients to better budget, plan, and manage the scope of their electronic discovery projects.
- Indexing & Culling: Page One offers an array of filter and culling services designed to turn large, unmanageable, data sets into smaller, manageable ones by eliminating unnecessary review of non responsive documents. Our culling services include any one, or any combination, of the following techniques:
- De-duplication: Identification of redundant documents and e-mails by analyzing the files on the bit level, ensuring that only “unique” documents are delivered to the legal team for review. Our capabilities include de-duplication across an entire data collection or across an individual custodian’s data collection.
- Full Text Searching: Page One can reduce a data set by using a variety of keywords, phrases, or other methods provided to us by our client. We utilize the most robust variations of Full Text searching found in the industry, through a variety of options, based on natural language (words and phrases), Boolean operator use (NOT, AND, OR, and W/N), as well as special character use. Our team of experienced consultants will advise you on how best to craft your search terms to optimize your results.
- Date and Time Selection: The option of reducing a data set by narrowing time frames can eliminate data for unnecessary time periods. For example, if a client has e-mail archives that contain data from 3 years prior to the present day, and the relevant time period is only the past 2 months, we can reduce the data set to just those 2 months, thus reducing the amount of data that must be reviewed.
- File Extension and Sizes: Page One can produce only certain file extensions. For example, if a client thinks that it is only necessary to process MS Excel files, then Page One can reduce an entire data set down to just one file type (or just three file types, etc.). Conversely, it can exclude given file types that are not relevant. In addition, we can also specify size limitations for each file extension.
- Sender/Recipient Selection: For e-mail processing, clients can reduce a data set by selecting only certain users to be processed. Clients can tag individual users, so that Page One can then process this reduced data set. Clients can search metadata records in To, From, CC, BCC, Contact, and Sent On Behalf Of e-mail fields by specific name(s).
- Data Processing and Preparation for Review: Page One bundles output data in any combination of images, extracted text, PDF files, metadata and/or native files, creating a customized load file that enables clients to seamlessly integrate information into review tools, document management systems, or print that information to paper. We will customize our output to meet the requirements of any review system that our client is using for the project.
Internet Repository
Our solution can be custom implemented to meet the matter-specific demands for document management with flexible subject matter build out. Providing the necessary tools for project organization, you are able to setup and define customized folders, datasets and user groups based on subject matter, review groups, hot docs, search results, or production sets.
The design philosophy is fast, simple and secure. It is a web-based model that enables rapid deployment, scalability and cost control. The MS Outlook look and feel provides a familiar foldering hierarchy interface, ensuring ease-of-use and eliminating the need for time consuming training and support.
Evidence / Data Collection
Forensically sound data acquisition is paramount to your case. Improper collection of electronic evidence may result in spoliation of the evidence if the correct procedures are not followed and documented. By creating a hash value of the data before it is captured, and comparing that “digital fingerprint” against the forensic clone of the data, it is possible to tell if even one bit of data has been altered.
National Coverage
Page One is affiliated with the largest independent network of litigation document support companies in the world. Our network has expanded with current service capabilities in over 200 cities both domestically and overseas.
- Best of Class in Every Market: Our lead affiliates in each market have been selected based on the quality of their output and customer feedback. This is a very fragmented industry, so there is no single company that has a geographic presence in even one-third of the markets we serve. Our goal is to get the best possible service and quality wherever the project takes place. This enables us to hand select our lead affiliates in each market. When it comes down to it, our goal is the same as yours – to get the best possible service and quality wherever the project takes place.
- Redundant Support Provided In All Major Markets: Not only will we provide you with a lead affiliate, but you will also have the option for an alternative affiliate vendor. If a situation develops where quality or turnaround time becomes an issue, the client can choose the alternative affiliate to better service the client’s needs. It’s like having the BEST OF BOTH WORLDS – the great service and motivation that comes with healthy competition, and the cost and control benefits that come with a standardized national agreement.
- Scalability: The unique structure of our affiliate network enables Page One to provide you with multiple vendors in most local markets. If a situation develops in which the project is “too large” or “too rush” for a single affiliate to handle, we have the ability to split workloads without shipping boxes all over the country. This enables us to put as many resources as needed on any given project to meet the particular demands of your document production.
