I recently spoke with Jonathan Martin, the Vice President and General Manager of Information Management at Hewlett Packard. We discussed e-discovery trends, foreign jurisdictions with current e-discovery concerns, and the results of a study HP commissioned in which an outside researcher interviewed 142 business and technology executives. Some of the findings included:
- Approximately 40% of companies are hindered by a lack of in-house expertise and an unclear information strategy.
- Workflow transformation, records management and e-discovery/compliance are areas in which companies are expected to invest in the next two years.
- Nearly half of the survey respondents were unfamiliar with the EDRM.

It's a fact that there are more performance and functional testers with HP's testing software installed than any enterprise solution on the planet. And every one of them could stand to benefit from having robust test environments that are readily available to work with. We think this is great news for the software lifecycle when the world's largest technology companies are working to solve some of the largest problems out there.

It's a simple question that needs to be asked - what software does HP use for their own e-discovery efforts and legal holds? I have heard that they were not using any of their own products, why would that be the case?
