The KPMG & Relativity Alliance Advantage

How KPMG can help you

Demonstrated Impact

1

For a leading technology company: KPMG streamlined the privilege review process by integrating our proprietary aiQ solution with Relativity's aiR for Privilege. This powerful combination reduced review time by 35% and ensured consistent, standardized privilege determinations across the matter.

2

For a multinational firm facing a complex contract analysis project: KPMG replaced manual methods with Relativity Contracts and custom AI prompts. This AI-driven approach dramatically improved first-pass data extraction accuracy, in some cases from 25% to 90%, significantly reducing review effort and freeing up valuable team resources.

For a global manufacturing company: A recent Relativity cloud transformation guided by KPMG resulted in a 30% reduction in operating costs and a 50% reduction in licensing costs, while modernizing their eDiscovery program in the process.

4

For a global technology company: In response to a major cyber incident, accelerated the data identification and extraction of sensitive data timeline from months to days using Relativity Data Breach Response – and saved millions in manual document review costs.

5

For SolarWinds: Expeditiously responded to existing and anticipated regulatory inquiries by processing terabytes of data to support SolarWinds response to inquiries including hearings before Congress and other governmental bodies such as the SEC, as well as legal proceedings involving shareholders. Reference: Working together to mitigate the threat of future malware attacks

6

For two merging entities in a high-profile M&A deal: KPMG managed a massive Hart-Scott-Rodino (HSR) Second Request by leveraging Relativity Collect for direct M365 data collection and the full RelativityOne platform to rapidly process and review millions of documents, meeting a tight production deadline to the Department of Justice (DOJ) and helping the deal proceed.
