An excerpt from the Zapproved blog:
The Electronic Discovery Reference Model (EDRM) refers to both a framework for conceptualizing the ediscovery process and the community that maintains that model.

In addition, the EDRM organization is a community of ediscovery and legal professionals who create resources to help drive improvement within the ediscovery and information governance industries. As technology radically transforms litigation and the legal profession, EDRM helps develop frameworks, standards, educational tools, and other resources to guide the adoption and use of ediscovery technologies.
