New Partner Program Collectively Expands Ability of Applied Discovery and Partners to Deliver Complex Discovery Services Worldwide to Law Firms and Corporations Bellevue, WA: January 12, 2010—Applied Discovery, a worldwide electronic discovery leader that offers multi-national collection, analytics, processing, review, and production services for corporations, law firms, and governmental entities engaged in audits, investigations, and litigation, today announced the launch of its Global Alliance Program. This new program is designed to directly meet client needs by both augmenting the Applied Discovery portfolio of available electronic discovery services and by enabling program partners to offer the Applied Discovery complex discovery capabilities to its clients. “Through the Applied Discovery Global Alliance Program, our desire is to bring together the best in electronic discovery technology and expertise and provide it to those who need it most – those firms and corporations conducting multi-national audits, investigations, and litigation,” shared Jon Resnick, vice president of client development and field operations at Applied Discovery. “By augmenting our services with capabilities that are not part of our core offerings, and allowing partners to deliver our services to complete their service offerings, we collectively can deliver complete and cost effective services to clients – both directly from Applied Discovery or through members of the Global Alliance Program.” “Providing superior services and resources to multi-national clients has helped CPA Global to become the world’s leading provider of legal services outsourcing,” stated Brandon Daniels, vice president of legal services outsourcing for CPA Global. “As a member of the Applied Discovery Global Alliance Program, CPA Global has been able to leverage the complete portfolio of Applied Discovery resources to complement our core capabilities and help meet our client’s complex discovery needs.” Developed in response to the growing demand from law firms, corporations, and service providers, the Global Alliance Program consists of two partnering categories – Platinum and Select. Platinum Partners – Platinum Alliance partners provide services and expertise that are complimentary with Applied Discovery offerings. These partners are considered based both on Applied Discovery requirements and their ability to represent in a consultative manner their services as part of Applied Discovery led client engagements. Select Partners – Select Alliance partners provide Applied Discovery services and expertise to their clients. These partners are considered based on their ability to integrate, sell, and support Applied Discovery services as part of their portfolio of service offerings.
