FTI’s Native File Processing (“NFP”) service can handle the biggest jobs at a moment’s notice. With over 2.5 terabytes per weekprocessing capacity, NFP provides the following benefits to any sized processing effort.

• Ability to process documents from a variety of message stores including Microsoft Outlook (.pst), Exchange (.ost), Lotus Notes (.nsf) and archive formats (WinZip .zip, WinRAR .rar, .gzip, .cab, .tar, .ace, obd).
• Forensic restoration of deleted files or attempts to hide information such as password protection and encryption.
• Make non-searchable Adobe PDFs searchable.
• Detection of Microsoft Word “Track Changes” and notes within Microsoft PowerPoint presentations.
• MD5 hash deduplication within and/or across custodians.
• Extraction and preservation of file and e-mail metadata, including the fields for To, From, Subject and Date Created, along with preservation of e-mail source and attachment relationships.
• Produce native documents, or convert to TIFF.
• Output to a variety of litigation support platforms, including Ringtail, Concordance and Summation.

If you are using the FTI Ringtail ASP, you can take advantage of several key features provided exclusively by NFP for your Ringtail cases, including:

• Native File Review, to view documents as they were originally authored.
• E-mail Threading, to identify gaps in the chain where e-mails have been modified or deleted.
• Tiff-on-the-Fly, to TIFF any native files in real time for redaction, rather than incur the expense of TIFFing the entire population, or inconvenience of shipping batches to an outside vendor.
• Equivio, to identify “near duplicate” documents such as different versions or formats of the same documents.
• Comparison Syncdisplays document coding with side-by-side images for comparison and coding replication.
