Deployment: Days, Not Months
Most venue security technology requires a renovation cycle, a construction crew, and six months of planning. RTIS sensors deploy in days. No on-premises servers. No structural modifications. No disruption to your current operations or event schedule.
What Deployment Actually Looks Like
There is no complex integration project. No middleware. No data center buildout. Here is the deployment process from first call to operational system.
-
Gate Survey (1-2 Days)
Before any commitmentThe Safience deployment team visits your venue (or reviews architectural plans remotely) to survey every gate, entry lane, and chokepoint. They map sensor positions for optimal coverage based on crowd flow patterns, lighting conditions, and physical infrastructure. The output is a coverage plan showing exactly where sensors go and how many you need.
Technical DetailAccess to the venue during a non-event period. Architectural plans if available. Your security director or facilities manager as a point of contact. Cost to you at this stage: Nothing. The gate survey is complimentary.

Connectivity Assessment
During the gate surveyEach proposed sensor position is assessed for connectivity. RTIS sensors connect via Power over Ethernet (PoE) or cellular. If your venue has existing PoE infrastructure at or near the proposed sensor positions, wired connectivity is preferred. If not, cellular-connected sensors require no cabling at all.
Technical DetailInformation about existing network drops at gate locations, if any.

Sensor Installation (1-3 Days)
After coverage plan approvalSensors are mounted at approved positions. For PoE-connected sensors, cabling is run to the nearest network drop. For cellular-connected sensors, mounting is the only physical work required. No structural modifications to the gate infrastructure. No new servers. No rack space. No HVAC. The sensors connect to the Safience cloud processing environment.
Technical DetailPhysical access, facilities escort if required by your security protocols. That is it.

System Configuration (1 Day)
Concurrent with or immediately following installationSafience configures alert routing (which personnel receive which alert types), X-list setup (import your banned patron list and any other operator-controlled lists), and event scheduling (which sensors activate for which events). Your security director or designee walks through the alert workflow and confirms the configuration.
Technical DetailYour banned patron list (photos and names), alert routing preferences, designated personnel for each alert category.

Operational Validation (1 Event)
First event after installationSafience runs RTIS at your first event with dedicated support. The deployment team monitors sensor health, processing throughput, and alert delivery in real time. Post-event debrief with your security leadership covers any adjustments needed.
Technical DetailNormal event-day operations. No special accommodations needed.

Full Operations
Second event onwardRTIS operates as part of your standard event-day security workflow. Safience provides ongoing remote monitoring, sensor health alerts, and system updates. The Rapid Action Center staffs your contracted event windows.

What You Do Not Need to Deploy RTIS
The same sensors you deploy for threat detection also search for missing children on every scan. RVIS runs automatically; no additional hardware, no additional configuration, no additional cost. Your deployment is also a humanitarian deployment.
RVIS: The Venue That Saves LivesWant to test before you commit? A pilot program deploys sensors at a subset of gates for a limited number of events. See results before scaling.
Pilot ProgramStart With a Gate Survey
The gate survey is the first step. It is also free. Our deployment team maps your venue, identifies optimal sensor positions, and delivers a coverage plan. No commitment required.
Every threat scan also searches for a missing child.
