The sports data and analytics firm has decided to extend its partnership with the Bundesliga club for another two years.
Stats Perform has given Dortmund a distinct edge when managing its club-wide scouting and recruitment operation.
The data company’s ISF platform has been helpful in building the club’s global reputation for the early identification of promising young players.
Markus Pilawa, Head of Scouting at Borussia Dortmund, said: “We have been working with the Stats Perform team for a long time, and during this time the ISF has been a helpful tool.
“The software maps various steps in our recruitment process that we have developed here in recent years. With the renewed cooperation, we look forward to a continued trustful collaboration.”
The ISF incorporates detailed career records for over 730,000 active players, as well as publishing data on over 100,000 matches played every year.
Even more, Stats Perform has incorporated biographical player data and line-up information in Germany into the ISF platform.
This gives the club a comprehensive look at the top four tiers of professional men’s football, as well as six regional youth leagues down to the under-17 level.
Stephan Hanke, Vice President of Sales in Europe at Stats Perform, added: “Our relationship with Borussia Dortmund’s scouting department goes back over 15 years and I am absolutely thrilled that we will be continuing to work together for at least another two years.
“Stats Perform is committed to helping clubs manage strategically for the long-term, and by providing Dortmund with a platform which enables them to manage both its academy and first-team scouting activity in parallel throughout the season."
