MANNHEIMER SWARTLING BOOSTS PRODUCTIVITY WITH AUTONOMY
IDOL Underpins Leading Nordic Law Firm's Knowledge and Document Management Strategy
Cambridge, UK and SAN FRANCISCO - September 14, 2010 - Autonomy Corporation plc (LSE: AU. or AU.L), a global leader in infrastructure software for the enterprise, today announced that Mannheimer Swartling, the leading law firm in the Nordic region, is using Autonomy iManage Universal Search (iUS) to boost collaboration, avoid duplication of effort and bridge knowledge gaps within the firm. Leveraging Autonomy's unique meaning-based platform, iUS enables lawyers across Mannheimer Swartling's international offices to collaborate and efficiently leverage the firm's best knowledge assets, thus providing clients with a consistent quality of legal service. Lawyers benefit from an intuitive interface that integrates seamlessly with WorkSite, the primary source for all of the firm's client/matter assets.
"Autonomy's purchase of Interwoven made the decision to select iManage Universal Search, powered by the award winning IDOL platform, an easy one for the firm," said Peter Coyet, Chief Technology Officer, Mannheimer Swartling. "Autonomy's technology far surpassed other offerings that we were investigating at the time."
Mannheimer Swartling is the leading full service business law firm in the Nordic region with an extensive international practice. Mannheimer Swartling turned to Autonomy to enable its geographically dispersed lawyers to easily collaborate and leverage the knowledge residing in the firm's data repositories. With the Intelligent Data Operating Layer (IDOL) as the single technology powering both Autonomy iUS and Autonomy iManage WorkSite, Mannheimer Swartling's lawyers from across all offices can tap into the firm's global expertise pool and provide their multinational clients with legal advice of consistent quality. Autonomy iUS' language agnosticism, automatic categorization and clustering abilities and intuitive user interface bring an unprecedented degree of contextual and conceptual understanding to all of the firm's content for genuine ROI.
"Faced with an ever-growing onslaught of information, today's lawyers are hard-pressed to access the right information easily and quickly," continued Mr. Coyet. "In our commitment to enhance client service, increase efficiencies and boost productivity, we took the strategic decision to move far beyond legacy systems. Autonomy iManage Universal Search allows our lawyers to instantly attain a holistic view of case matters and truly leverage the knowledge assets within the firm to derive maximum value from each billable hour."
"Prompted by increasing pressures to improve the productivity of fee earners, the world's leading law firms are increasingly turning to meaning-based solutions to boost productivity and gain a distinct competitive advantage," commented Glenn Perachio, VP of Autonomy iManage, Legal Solutions, EMEA. "We are delighted that Mannheimer Swartling has selected iManage Universal Search for all of its knowledge management and high-end information processing needs."
