We’re looking to make the EDRM diagram more interactive so that you’d be able to click on a box and then go deeper into that section or even to the point of arrows from box to box. Like being able to say. I know the revision of the model is ongoing, but so far, what are some notable changes you would like to point out? There are different ways to exchange documents and request and receive data, so it’ll be a matter of having all voices heard as broadly as we possibly can. when the model was first drawn, it was primarily a U.S.-centric model and this upgraded will include incorporate the wisdom of the global community. We’ve had amendments around proportionality, as well as the global impact. It will incorporate all of our learning with the advent of technology that we didn’t see when the model was first drawn, and then also the changes in United States federal practice. Mack: EDRM 2.0 will be the accumulated wisdom of the community as we are in our third decade now of e-discovery. Mary Mack, EDRM CEO and Chief Legal Technologist We’re looking to make the EDRM diagram more interactive so that you’d be able to click on a box and then go deeper into that section or even to the point of arrows from box to box. The following conversation has been edited for length and clarity. And the EDRM model is currently in the process of being updated to reflect that.īelow, Mack talks to Legaltech News about the specifics of changing the EDRM model, how the process is set to be a community effort, and how EDRM is looking to leverage the newest innovations for its future. With proliferating data sources from collaboration apps, cloud technology and innovations like generative AI, along with evolving international data transfer regimes, e-discovery is in a rapid evolution. Now, Mary Mack, its CEO and chief legal technologist has decided, along with the broader e-discovery community, that it’s time for another remodel: EDRM 2.0.

Since its launch in 2005, the Electronic Discovery Reference Model (EDRM), has gone through a handful of changes.
