“Patrons have a choice and if they perceive that the hassle and intrusiveness of the security process is too great, they may choose not to attend a performance.”
“We have over 18,000 guests on a given day during the summer season. Even with all six security lanes running at full capacity, which was around 250 people each, we could have a significant queue waiting to get into the building. This had a direct impact on guest experience.”
“Being involved with MLS’ newest expansion team, St. Louis CITY SC, was really exciting, especially since I grew up playing soccer in St. Louis. Providing a safe, clean and friendly environment for our guests is our first priority."
“When we evaluated different options, we kept coming back to the fact that Evolv is used at some of the largest sports stadiums and most prestigious performing arts centers in the country. If it keeps their environments safe and scales to handle the volumes of guests they experience, then it is good enough for us.”
“When guests come to Hollywood Park, and more specifically SoFi Stadium or YouTube Theater, they expect a smooth experience—whether it is parking, coming through the entrance, or the actual event they came to see. Guests set a very high bar when it comes to experience, and they expect us to meet or exceed it.”
"Leading-edge technology is at the core of what we’re doing here. We’re at the forefront of digital transformation at Hollywood Park, seeking to deliver unrivaled experiences to guests. This includes ingress at our various entrances.”
"Working with Evolv has been great—everything from how the Express system works, to educating us on Cortex AI®, to getting our team scheduled for online training, to resolving tech support issues the few times they have arisen.”
"We want our fans to have a great time when they come here. This is one of the reasons we love Evolv—which makes security screening easy and fast without sacrificing security. It is not intrusive like the metal detectors.”
"Evolv is where safety meets experience. You don’t need to compromise one for the other. Evolv enables us to create a special dynamic that facilitates both.”
"The walk-through metal detectors gave everyone the feeling that they were walking into prison. That is the last thing we wanted to convey.”
“We’ve screened over 222,000 patients and visitors with Evolv to date. It was mind-boggling to see the first monthly report that we generated with Evolv Insights. I saw the number of weapons we detected, and I thought, ‘Wow! This system is amazing.’”
"We’ve had individuals who have brought weapons into our Emergency Department lobbies and our campuses. This is one of the primary reasons why our administration elected to search for a different security screening approach, seeking a way to stop and deter anyone from bringing weapons into our campus.”
“Our patients, family members, and staff need to feel secure because everyone who is entering has gone through the same processes to ensure that no one brings a weapon into one of our facilities that they could use to harm themselves, one of our coworkers, or another patient or family member of a patient."
“The unfortunate prevalence of gun violence, coupled with the fact that more people carry firearms, puts our public at an increased risk of violence. Health care settings are not immune to such threats, and after an incident where a weapon was brought into an Emergency Department, we decided we needed to do something.”
“The lack of security created an environment subconsciously for patients and their families—whether it was in the exam room or waiting room upon their arrival.”
