The Ingersoll Firm

The benefits of an ESI data map are so fundamental and pervasive it is difficult to overstate them.  This is due to Information Technology's presence in and influence on business operations.  Today, it is exceptionally rare to find an organization whose primary method of creating, distributing, and storing information are typewriters, carbon paper, and steel file cabinets.  Instead, computers, e-mail, and hard disk drives are the tools employed in the creation, distribution, and storage of information.Those responsible for identifying, preserving, collecting, processing, and producing information--or what the courts refer to as ESI or "electronically stored information"--in legal or regulatory proceedings MUST ADDRESS THE FACT THAT THE VAST MAJORITY OF INFORMATION IS ELECTRONIC.  The ESI data map is a defensible inventory or catalog of an organization's IT infrastructure and systems that may contain ESI that is potentially discoverable in any legal or regulatory proceeding.The Ingersoll Firm has developed a cost effective and  defensible process for developing an enterprise-wide ESI data map.  This process has been employed in the creation of ESI data maps for a wide range of Fortune 1000 organizations.  Please explore our website to learn more about our ESI data mapping practice--and more about ESI data mapping.

The Ingersoll Firm brings over 13 years of experience translating complex computer concepts, software, and IT systems into a transparent and understandable subject.  We not only understand how technology works, we also understand how difficult it can be for the non-technical to master the intracicies of corporate e-mail servers, relational database management systems, and complex storage systems.  So our mission is to translate:  take the confusing jargon and terminology and make it clearly understandable to those who do not have a technical background or orientation.
