KPI Dimension 1: Economy
The first U4SSC KPIs dimension is Economy. This dimension covers the sub-dimensions of Information
and Communication Technologies (ICTs), Productivity and Infrastructure.
In the ICTs sub-dimension, the KPIs include those related to a city's ICT infrastructure, water and
sanitation, drainage, electricity supply, transport and public sector. These KPIs aim to assess the
availability and use of the ICT infrastructure in cities that facilitates smart sustainable city services.
The Productivity sub-dimension includes KPIs related to innovation and employment. These KPIs aim
to assess the use and impact of ICTs in the economic development of cities. They cover innovation,
job creation, trade and productivity. These KPIs are also expected to play a pivotal role in assessing a
city’s adoption of the ICTs that support socio-economic growth.
The Infrastructure sub-dimension relates to water and sanitation, waste, electricity supply, transport,
buildings and urban planning. These KPIs aim to assess the impact of ICTs on city infrastructure,
development and sustainability.
The key theme assessed by the Economy KPIs is the level of implementation of ICTs. A smart sustainable
city (SSC) requires fixed and mobile ICT infrastructures to allow for the deployment of applications
that will:
1. facilitate the development of smart and sustainable cities;
2. promote civic engagement; and
3. foster improvements in sustainability (gained though efficiencies in operations).
There are also KPIs within this dimension that are meant to help analyse the general economic
well-being and innovation of a city and to measure the support from ICTs in the process.
The following diagram summarizes Bizerte’s KPI performance detailing the categories within the
Economy dimension against the current U4SSC benchmarks.
