Though e-discovery market in the U.K. isn't as mature as it is in the U.S., the country is making strides bringing e-discovery into the mainstream. The U.K.'s Serious Fraud Office (SFO), for instance, recently announced that it has brought in OpenText's AI-powered Axcelerate document review system to help with its investigative efforts.
To be sure, the agency is far from the only government entity leveraging e-discovery technology in its operations. But the SFO is not your average e-discovery buyer. “We are not a law firm, we are not an in-house team, we have requirements that are specific to us because we are an investigator and prosecutor,” said Ben Denison, chief technology officer at the SFO.
