Within the idea of focusing on 'Just What Matters,' our understanding of whether something matters will always develop incrementally. Acquire information, put it in the context of the project plan, continue. As we have said, investigate, analyze, communicate, repeat. The first question is how to analyze what we're seeing. Does it matter or not? If it matters, what could it mean for the project? How should lawyers analyze information?
The components of legal projects aren't easy to analyze. They don't fall neatly into 'keep' or 'discard' buckets, but we can look to Knowledge Management or 'KM' for guidance on how to analyze what we see. Knowledge Management is all about what knowledge exists and how can it be acquired, stored, analyzed and deployed. In that vein, the KM inspired model represents how we process knowledge.
