Transforming Stadium Security and Matchday Operations Across MLS

In February 2025, Raven Controls officially launched its partnership with Major League Soccer (MLS), providing a cutting-edge matchday reporting platform for all Stadium Security Advisors (SSAs). This collaboration enhances real-time security operations, streamlines reporting, and ensures efficient communication between stadiums and MLS headquarters.

• Pre-Match Checklist Reporting: Ensuring all stadiums meet security requirements before each match.
  
  

• Real-Time Incident & Issue Reporting: Capturing and managing all matchday security incidents as they unfold.
  
  

• Notification & Escalation: Immediate issue escalation to the central monitoring system for swift resolution.
  
  

• Raven ONE Centralised Dashboard: A single interface that consolidates all security data across venues.
  
  

• Live Support Provision: Enabling seamless coordination and real-time troubleshooting.
  
  

• Checklist Matchday Phase Reporting: Structured reporting for different matchday security phases.

Raven’s integration provides MLS with an unparalleled level of visibility and control, ensuring that:
