Caselines: KM and The Modern Law Firm: Formal Law Firm KM Strategy - 0 views

  • The next session at the Ark KM Conference saw Mark Young, Managing Partner, and John S. Gillies, Director of Practice Support, at Cassels Brock & Blackwell LLP address development of a KM strategy.
  • He indicated that he often hears partners claim they could get more work in the door if they had more time; KM offered them more time, and hence more opportunity for more business.
  • He also feels that KM provides an opportunity to demonstrate greater value to clients.
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • John outlined some specifics of the firm’s KM Strategy. The three primary prongs of their plan were an effective Document Management System (DMS); a way to manage precedents; and good DMS search.
  • They chose Interwoven for their DMS and adopted a unified “folder structure” as a way of fostering collaboration between practice groups.
  • For their search, they used comments from focus groups and the strategic plan to develop a 100-feature set of requirements, with each of the requirements weighted ranking from 1-5. Despite the extensive quantitative work, the two competitors, Recommind and Interwoven Universal Search (IUS), came out with an identical ranking. They went with IUS because of its tighter integration with Interwoven. John mentioned that Recommind did a better job of expertise identification, but that this feature was less important to them as a one-office shop.

3 Geeks and a Law Blog: The Search for Meaning - 0 views

  • First there is an effort to better structure information as it is captured. Second, there are efforts to create structure out of chaotic information (a.k.a. BLOBs), which is where next-generation search tools come into play.
  • For now I will break search into three categories: Keyword, Concept and Semantic.
  • Keyword or word searching, for this discussion, is that of searching for exact word matches.
  • ...7 more annotations...
  • The keyword method has been very useful to-date, especially when searching within large structured databases. It allows users to search by date, location, category, etc., to come up with useful results.
  • The problem with keyword searching is the expanding mass of unstructured information we now have. Keyword searching has become inadequate and at times counter productive to finding the right information quickly and affordably.
  • Concept search is one method for solving this problem. My definition: The ability to extract structure from unstructured data.
  • Concept searching is just coming into the market, with players like Recommind, Autonomy and Collexis. As an emerging technology, the challenge is good implementation. Companies and firms are attacking this problem now, so I would expect this challenge to diminish over time.
  • Semantic search is truly Web 3.0. Sir Tim suggested this concept over a decade ago and now efforts are under way to make it a reality. My definition: Attach meaning to each piece of data. In practice this means describing each piece of information by its relationship to another piece. In the geek world this is referred to as “subject, predicate, object” and is defined with a standard called RDF (more on that in another post).
  • In fact in this environment the machine can discover knowledge. By connecting all the triples via their relationships, the machine will answer questions we never ask.
  • Semantic search currently lives mostly in the minds of geeks and venture capitalists (with some exceptions).
