CITY UTILITY DATA STARTER KIT (90 DAYS)

Start with one dataset. Prove value. Scale only when it makes sense. 
Yes, that’s allowed.

the problem

Most Smart City projects try to solve everything at once. Which usually means nothing moves.

Common symptoms  

Data lives in separate departments

Everyone swears they’ll “synchronize later.” 

They won’t.

Dashboards multiply faster than insights

The city has screenshots, not decisions.

Procurement grows to 300+ pages

Because if it's thicker, it must be smarter, right?

Everyone waits for “Phase 2” to start  

Spoiler: Phase 2 rarely starts.

 
Cities don’t need “bigger platforms.” They need one working data flow to build on.

the solution

Our Approach 

(simple and a bit refreshing)

We begin with one utility dataset — energy, water, mobility or waste.

We connect it using:

  • FIWARE / NGSI-LD Smart Data Models   
  • The DCaaS data layer (already part of FiWAREBox)
  • Your existing systems and IT infrastructure
No disruption.
No platform migration. 
No “strategic masterplan alignment committees.”

Once the first dataset is flowing → transparency, dashboards, and real decisions become possible.

Then we expand - only if it’s worth it.
What You Get (in 90 Days)
 
  • A working City Data Layer (FIWARE-ready) ​
  • At least one unified utility dataset
  • Dashboards that matter (not 40 tabs)
  • Open APIs for future integrations
  • Documentation your IT department will actually like
This is not a pilot.

This is your operational starting point.

 

Who This Is For ​
 

Cities that:

  • Have 50,000–500,000 residents.
  • Want measurable improvements (not press releases).
  • Need interoperability and EU compliance.
  • Prefer smart sequencing over “big bang transformation”.   
If that sounds like your city → we’re aligned already.
