Pully underperforms in this category. The role of e-governance as a building block to a true smart
city has been emphasized by the UN and the OECD. E-governance increases citizens' participation
in decision-making. It makes public services delivery more effective, accessible and responsive to
people’s needs. Open data and public sector e-procurement help establish government transparency
and accountability.

Therefore, performance in these indicators needs to be improved significantly.

Optimizing public sector activities: The city develops, or has access to, 500 open data sets. Making
a sizeable percentage of these available publicly online will help ensure the transparency mentioned
above. It is also recommended that the city tracks and reports the percentage of public sector
procurement activities that are conducted electronically in subsequent reporting years. Lastly,
the city should increase the number of public services that it delivers through electronic means in
order to achieve the aforementioned effectiveness, accessibility and responsiveness. Pully may find
Recommendation ITU-T Y.3600: ‘Big data standardization roadmap’ particularly helpful towards its
e-services and e-processes, along with Recommendation ITU-T Y.4461: ‘Framework of open data in
smart cities’ when preparing its open data offerings.
