FTI Technology Leads Contract Analysis for Large Second Request

When a U.S.-based merger triggered a second request review, more than 18 million company documents were in scope as potentially relevant to the Federal Trade Commission’s review. The law firm representing one of the organizations sought FTI Technology for its expertise across the Digital Insights & Risk Management framework and the team’s ability to scale a global team of domain experts. Contract Solutions were one part of the broader engagement.

Our Role

FTI Technology has deep expertise in supporting second requests, and has delivered e-discovery, document review and contract analysis for dozens of merger clearance investigations globally.

FTI Technology’s Contract Solutions Team provided the following throughout the engagement:

  • Narrowing the set of contracts for review using analytics and existing metadata to exclude duplicates and documents not in scope.
  • Leveraging an artificial intelligence-powered solution to identify documents containing confidentiality language, and extract relevant provisions for further analysis, allowing the team to efficiently narrow the review set to only 10% of the entire document population.
  • Contract analyst review to structure notice details and support the client in automating issuance of notices to contract counterparties where needed, including organization notice information and elimination of duplicative notices.
