Discovery can be an incredibly expensive process if you are unprepared when hit with litigation. Your department can be brought to a standstill if you are not ready to cope with the burdens that litigation can bring. You need to understand what documents and files you're required to have, identify where the files are stored, coordinate the collection of these files, and ensure that they are compiled or scanned. You also need to achieve this efficiently, without costing your department millions of dollars.
