Prominent Law Firm Selects MDY FileSurf From MDY For Records Management
MDY, the leading provider of records management innovation, today announced that Davis Wright Tremaine LLP (DWT) selected MDY FileSurf® Records Management Software to manage the records of the more than 1000 employees in their North American offices. Improving access to information and firm-wide compliance, MDY FileSurf will provide DWT with a single records management policy engine to control records retention for all physical and electronic records, including e-mail.
After a thorough evaluation of 5 leading vendors, DWT selected MDY FileSurf as the most comprehensive solution available. MDY's robust feature set and the ability to effectively manage electronic records ‘in-place' in the Interwoven document management repository was critical in DWT's selection. MDY will also provide conversion services of all physical records from DWT's previous system as DWT standardizes on MDY FileSurf nationwide.
"DWT dedicated significant resources to ensure the firm made the right choice for its technology partner," said Janice Nelson, IT Director of DWT. "MDY's vast records experience, success in implementing electronic records management solutions, and robust product offering were key. Our attorneys need access to critical case records, anytime - anywhere, and MDY could provide everything we required and more."
"MDY FileSurf enables lawyers and support staff to more effectively manage both electronic and hard copy records while ensuring compliance and risk management across the firm," said Galina Datskovsky, Ph.D., CRM, and CEO of MDY. "We are pleased to be partnered with DWT on their records management initiative."
