Information Governance
eDiscovery & holds
Legal response withoutthe fire drill.
Policy models, Microsoft Purview, holds, search, and export workflows let legal and compliance teams respond to discovery and investigations with confidence—not last-minute scrambles across email, SharePoint, and Teams.
Discovery gaps show up when content is scattered and policies are unclear:
Sound familiar?
Discovery requests expose every governance gap
“Legal called—we have 48 hours to preserve everything.”
Without pre-defined hold workflows and custodian lists, preservation becomes a manual hunt across mailboxes, SharePoint, and Teams.
“Our policy exists on paper, not in the tenant.”
Retention labels, disposition rules, and classification models must be configured and measured—not buried in a compliance binder.
“Search returns too much—or misses the point.”
Keyword searches without scope, date bounds, and custodian targeting inflate review cost and delay defensible production.
“Export and chain-of-custody aren’t repeatable.”
Each matter reinvents hold, search, and export steps. Auditors and outside counsel need consistent, documented workflows.

AuditProof point
Case study: GCC High with audit-ready information management
A defense consulting firm migrated to GCC High but records and permissions did not match how legal, delivery, and operations collaborated. OWCER redesigned SharePoint topology, corrected over- and under-sharing, and aligned limited information-management rules to the regulated tenant.
“Permission and information-management model leadership could explain to clients and auditors without blocking delivery work.”
How we engage
