Mark Noel (VP AI & Data Consulting) caught me up on the integration of Redgrave Data into the larger Elevate ecosystem. Since joining Elevate, the Redgrave Data team has focused on developing internal automation, as well as custom tools and capabilities for the broader Elevate customer base. This kind of post M&A work takes time, as the team’s world-class experts need to scale their expertise into delivery systems.
“Expertise can be more widely available than experts.”
What Elevate’s Data & AI Consulting team is working on today:
- Investment and overhaul of breach response services to automate workflow and reduce response time.
- Contract ELM accelerating lifecycle management and quality.
- Applying near duplicate AI to plagiarism, copyright, privilege and expert report scenarios.
- Developing custom tools and connectors with open source AI such as Zeta Alpha to power search and other functionality with M365, Relativity and other platforms.
- Creating an open source AI test toolkit.
In this age of market consolidation, far too many acquisitions are based on leveraging captive customers acquired rather than value synergies. Elevate’s 2024 investments in the CJK Group and Redgrave Data seem to have broadened their expertise, technology stack and offerings. Where other players try to be pure service or technology providers, Elevate’s “Expert-led. Software powered” value statement will appeal to sophisticated customers with complex challenges.
