| OTHER CASE STUDIES |
|---|
| Case Tracking System Our Disputes team manages 28 active matters for a client through our case tracking system. Our client is able to log in and view the current status and latest documents for any of its matters at any time. |
| Machine learning accelerated contract reviews A global energy company needed to review 5,000 government permits in connection with the transfer of a large project. The Ashurst Advance team taught our artificial intelligence software to recognise and extract key data from the contracts and government permits, halving the time needed to review the documents. |
| Logic Engine A financial information provider was releasing a new product suite to customers at the same time that new regulations were being imposed in their market. The client’s customers were unclear whether regulations applied to them and therefore which products were available. There was concern that sales would be reduced and the cost of addressing regulatory enquiries would be prohibitive. By making a logic engine available directly to the client's customers, instant regulatory guidance could be provided based on individual circumstances, with challenging issues escalated to legal teams. |
