March 11, 2025 – The Association of Corporate Counsel (ACC), the leading global association for in-house counsel, has named Elevate and FedEx joint winners in the ‘Litigation Response’ category of the ACC’s  2025 Value Champions Awards.

The awards, given annually since 2012, recognise innovative initiatives demonstrated to increase law department efficiency and achieve cost savings. This is the fourth time an Elevate customer has won an ACC Value Champion Award for work involving Elevate.

For the winning project, FedEx partnered with Elevate to develop an innovative AI tool for responding to written discovery requests. Elevate helped develop, train, and fine-tune an AI tool that it used in combination with a team of experienced lawyers and paralegals from Elevate’s integrated law firm. The ‘human expertise + AI’ approach substantially reduced the time and effort required to respond to written discovery requests without sacrificing quality and consistency.
