Boston College’s Data-Driven Deployment of Evolv Express® Amplifies Safety and Collegiate Sporting Experiences

Boston College

Boston College has a rich tradition in athletics, touting the Alumni Stadium which holds 45,000 football fans, and a basketball and hockey center, Conte Forum, that holds 8,600 fans for basketball and 7,500 for hockey. The college also has a softball field with a capacity of 2,500 and a lacrosse field with a capacity of 2,000.

Around 2019, Conway and his team evaluated an alternative solution and ultimately determined it was not the right fit for the campus. The Boston College team continued its search for a different security screening approach and discovered it due to a chance encounter with Evolv Technology. Conway cites several reasons behind the decision to purchase Evolv, including their goals to provide consistent screening and actionable data insights.

By enabling the Evolv Express®, Boston College was able to achieve the following:

  • Shrink time for stadium ingress by approximately 50%
  • Reduced security staff requirements by approximately two-thirds (~200 staff)
  • Integrated Express with local polic for faster emergency response
  • Accessed real-time analytics
