Discover how MAPSystems processed and coded over 6.5 million environmental litigation records, delivering review-ready data ahead of schedule for a leading global law firm.
A globally recognized law firm engaged MAPSystems to perform large-scale document unitization and coding services for two complex environmental litigation matters. The project involved processing nearly 6.6 million images and coding approximately 300,000 documents under strict discovery deadlines.
The client is an internationally renowned law firm serving multinational corporations, investors, and entrepreneurial organizations across tax, healthcare, mergers and acquisitions, private equity, and regulatory law.
Project 1: ~5million images processed within 13 weeks
Project 2: 1.5 million images processed within 9 weeks
50 dedicated specialists recruited and trained
500,000+ logical boundaries identified and inserted
250,000+ documents coded for objective and subjective metadata fields
The client needed review-ready environmental records from two massive collections with inconsistent document boundaries, limited metadata, and poor image quality. Traditional automated capture technologies were ineffective due to the age and condition of the records. The legal team also faced aggressive discovery deadlines, requiring rapid turnaround without compromising accuracy.
MAPSystems developed a structured litigation support workflow beginning with detailed requirement gathering and pilot processing. Subject Matter Experts validated coding standards and quality benchmarks before scaling operations. A dedicated team of 70 trained professionals was deployed and cross-trained to maintain consistency, optimize resource allocation, and support changing project priorities.
MAPSystems successfully delivered rolling production batches ahead of schedule, enabling uninterrupted attorney review. The team established more than 300,000 logical boundaries in the primary collection and enriched the second collection with critical metadata and document descriptions. Both projects were completed ahead of final deadlines, providing additional review time for legal teams while maintaining budget expectations and quality standards.
With extensive experience in litigation support, document processing, metadata coding, and legal outsourcing services, MAPSystems helps law firms and corporate legal departments streamline discovery workflows, improve operational efficiency, and manage large-scale data challenges with confidence.
