What is the role of assignments in Relativity?

In Relativity, assignments play a critical role in the document review process by allowing users to allocate specific documents to individual reviewers or teams. This strategy enhances the efficiency and organization of the review workflow. With assignments, project managers or administrators can designate certain documents to targeted reviewers based on their expertise, workload, or the aspects of the case they are best suited to address.

By doing so, it streamlines the review process and ensures that each document is examined by a reviewer who is most qualified or available, which can significantly improve the overall quality and speed of the review. This focused distribution of documents helps in managing large volumes of data, which is common in legal and compliance contexts, while also ensuring accountability and facilitating clearer tracking of each reviewer’s progress and contributions within the platform.
