It's more important than ever to be able to monitor and continuously improve the performance of any law firm process on an ongoing basis. The idea is to watch your costs, make improvements and increase efficiency. This is especially true of outsourced processes that involve managing documents, such as the print/copy and mail center operations, eDiscovery, etc. Think of a cardiologist using an EKG to track real-time objective heart performance. With a similar level of insight into your service provider's performance, you’d have much less to worry about. Join this program to review case history examples to bring these concepts to life.

Learning Objectives:
  • Discuss why it's important to monitor law firm functions, especially those that are outsourced. Mail and copy/print management, document imaging, records management and eDiscovery are potential areas in which your firm can save money and increase efficiency.
  • Identify the ways in which you can monitor law firm processes
  • Explain the methods for real-time, and ongoing process analysis
