Deloitte has expanded its existing nine-year working relationship with e-discovery platform provider Relativity. The alliance focuses on delivering data governance solutions to clients.

In a statement, Deloitte said that the new alliance aims to help organizations build or hone critical processes including data governance, global investigation, litigation and regulatory compliance management.

“Managing, preserving and protecting in-motion data for multi-jurisdictional matters is taking increasingly more advanced e-discovery skills and solutions,” said Chris May, Deloitte Risk and Financial Advisory principal and national discovery practice leader. “Leading organizations want industry-specific services and a fully integrated, cross-platform solution that tracks both structured and unstructured data globally in a consistent, secure, and flexible way — including or extending beyond e-discovery use.”
