The importance of building a foundation for analytics, AI and everything else can’t be understated, which ProSearch discusses in their latest post.
The post titled (wait for it!) Building a Foundation for Analytics, AI and Beyond, written by Susan Ballard & Luke Groth and available here, discusses how the complexity and variety of data types have expanded beyond traditional emails and documents to encompass diverse formats from images and audio/video files to collaboration tool outputs and even junk email. That has made integrating advanced technologies into eDiscovery workflows increasingly challenging for organizations today. However, with the right strategies and tools, organizations can effectively prepare for and navigate this evolution.
To prepare for change, organizations must evaluate their data to determine what should be moved into advanced technologies. Here’s one of the things that organizations must do:
Understand Your Data Landscape
The variety of data types is ever-increasing, including:
- Traditional files: PDFs, Word documents, and spreadsheets
- New formats: Social media posts, chat messages from collaboration tools (e.g., Slack, Microsoft Teams), and mobile data
The need for tailored workflows arises to more efficiently handle different data types in separate workflows leveraging different technology and processes.
So, what else must organizations do to prepare for change? What are the steps to establish solid foundations for their operations to successfully transition to advanced technologies? And how can you collaborate and embrace the change? Find out here, it’s just one more click! The authors really level with you in this post! 😀
