About Project Management Services at DISCO
DISCO provides a comprehensive ediscovery platform that enables users to manage their matters themselves, end-to-end. However, some matters or customers have needs for billable assistance from expert project managers. The DISCO Project Management team provides full-service hands-on support for those customers.
The list below highlights just a few of the most common value-add services that project management provides, but there are many other ways that DISCO Project Managers can add value with our customers.
