• Support appeals and litigation matters, including review in Relativity or other approved eDiscovery tools, preparation of correspondence, Vaughn-index support, and documentation of actions taken.
• Develop and implement Government-approved search terms in designated eDiscovery systems and document search activity and potentially responsive records.
• Maintain complete and accurate case files, including draft responses, notes, annotations, correspondence, and supporting documentation in designated tracking systems.
• Review work for completeness, accuracy, appropriate exemption application, and consistency before submission for required Government review and approval.
• Identify processing barriers and opportunities to improve workflows, reduce rework, and support timely completion of assigned cases.
