About Federal Agency
As a federal agency responsible for both public transparency and legal compliance, the organization manages a massive volume of records, from scanned documents and email archives to modern cloud platforms. They needed a unified system to process FOIA requests and litigation data simultaneously, with complete audit trails, secure access controls, and efficient redaction workflows, all without doubling infrastructure or effort.
The Challenges
Handling FOIA requests and litigation productions in parallel required precision, consistency, and airtight compliance. With overlapping custodians and data types, from legacy archives to cloud repositories, the agency needed to balance transparency with legal defensibility, all while meeting strict timelines.
- Mixed Heritage Data: Legacy email archives, scanned records, and SharePoint content created complexity in normalization and searchability.
- Stringent Compliance Requirements: Strict audit trails, access controls, and retention policies had to be enforced consistently across all custodians and sources.
- Dual-Track Obligations: The agency needed to manage FOIA rolling releases alongside litigation productions, each requiring different exemptions, redactions, and review criteria.
The Result
With Venio, the results came fast and defensible:
- 35% reduction in operator hours and infrastructure due to a single pipeline for FOAI & litigation
- +20% search recall with OCR enhancements and QC sampling
- 100% audit trail compliance with zero corrective findings
- FOIA backlog cleared 2 months early while litigation remained on schedule
Why It Worked
Venio’s shared, defensible corpus with role-based access and exemption/redaction tooling allowed the agency to comply consistently across FOIA and litigation obligations, reducing duplication while ensuring defensibility and efficiency.
