HOUSTON, October 29, 2021 – Onit, Inc., a leading provider of enterprise workflow and artificial intelligence platforms and solutions, including enterprise legal management, contract lifecycle management and business process automation, today announced that they and their customer BT Group plc are joint finalists for Buying Legal Council’s prestigious Legal Procurement Award for Innovation.
“It was truly a great opportunity to work with David Griffin and his team at BT Group plc on their highly innovative MyLegal project,” said Eric M. Elfman, CEO and co-founder of Onit. “It was exciting for us to learn that the implementation reduced the complexity of BT’s technology stack by 75%, and an unprecedented 70% of matters that previously hadn’t been reportable or trackable were now under complete management. With the help of Onit’s solutions, BT is leveraging this opportunity to rethink, streamline and measure their activities and processes to transform their law department by integrating best practices into smarter workflows and operational efficiencies. The results of BT’s technology implementation speak for themselves, and for every hour they can give back to their lawyers on some task that can be automated, they can plow back into something that is more productive to their company.”

The awards provide a measure of recognition for achievement on the most relevant dimensions of skill and creativity,” commented Dr. Silvia Hodges Silverstein, CEO of the Buying Legal® Council.
