The EDRM's XML standard provides a universal load file format for the transfer of electronically stored information (ESI) during any stage of the electronic discovery process. ONSITE³ is compliant with this standard and supports an extensive library of other data delivery formats as well, including the ability to deliver data in custom formats to meet client unique specifications.

To assist our clients in utilizing the EDRM's new XML load file format in conjunction with existing Concordance Opticon and other delimited text load file formats, ONSITE³ provides a free downloadable conversion tool, which fully supports the EDRM's XML 1.0 standard.

ONSITE³'s XML Load File Converter is designed to facilitate the import and export of load files from one system or application into another during the eDiscovery process. Available as freeware, there is no cost or other obligation required in order to use ONSITE^3's XML Load file Converter.

While the tool is certified by the EDRM as compliant with the EDRM's XML 1.0 standard, ONSITE³ assumes no responsibility or liability for any damages and/or lost or corrupted data resulting from the use of Microsoft's .NET Framework 2.0, the EDRM’s XML 1.0 standard, or ONSITE³'s XML Load File Converter, except as required by law. In addition, it is the user’s responsibility when using ONSITE³'s XML Load File Converter to ensure any and all converted load files are complete, accurate, and otherwise suitable for the intended purpose.
