SUNNYVALE, Calif. – November 3, 2004 – Interwoven, Inc. (Nasdaq: IWOV), provider of Enterprise Content Management (ECM) solutions for business, today announced that Interwoven, DuPont and Ernst & Young will present a joint Webcast on Thursday, November 18, 2004, entitled Case Study: DuPont and Ernst & Young; Best Practices in Corporate Legal Collaborative Solutions.
What:
The Business Challenge: Effective collaboration is vital for corporate legal departments who are increasingly faced with the challenge of managing high volumes of documents, electronic content and e-mail within their practice groups, as well as with outside law firms, suppliers and other third parties. Further, with a rising tide of corporate litigation, consolidations, mergers, and some of the century’s most sweeping changes to corporate governance, corporate legal departments are facing unprecedented workloads and increased scrutiny. In this Webcast, DuPont and Ernst & Young will overview how DuPont, engaged with Ernst & Young’s Investigative & Dispute Services practice, embarked on a project to improve collaboration between its distributed legal teams, law firms, and suppliers. The two companies worked together to identify DuPont’s key collaborative challenges and improvement areas; determine to what extent its collaborative challenges were impacting the effectiveness of internal teams, outside firms and suppliers; and find a way to centralize DuPont’s legal knowledge for greater leverage throughout the corporation.
The Solution: Interwoven's collaborative document management solution provides enterprises with the foundation to streamline team-based collaboration and document-intensive processes within practice groups, across geographically-dispersed offices and with outside parties. With Interwoven WorkSite MP, enterprises can enjoy the benefits of the most usable system in the industry that is designed for business professionals. The combination provides enterprises with the ability to accelerate user adoption — a significant problem for traditional document management systems — and to scale deployment across multiple initiatives, departments, divisions and geographies. Interwoven WorkSite MP delivers on the promise of an enterprise standard for document management and collaboration.
