The two frameworks will become one ecosystem, which implements a system that realizes a
sustainable smart city. In other words, the data collected, stored, managed, analyzed, shared and
utilized through the data operation framework will be leveraged as a base material for city operation
and create a mechanism for realizing a more Smart Sustainable City.

Daegu City built the governance system in 2021 and collected indicators for an evaluation system
for the city, including the U4SSC KPIs. The city will customize and implement them step by step
from 2022.

This focuses on the success of sustainable cities in the future by generating more data, and by how
well they utilize it to create value added data and services that improve inhabitants' lives.

6.1.6 Smart manufacturing and business ecosystem

Smart manufacturing systems are driven by the utilization of technologies derived from areas of
emerging research, including robotics, machine learning and the Internet of Things (IoT) to monitor
real-time production rates to meet changing demands. In this context, Daegu is promoting the
expansion of smart factories, which is predicted to facilitate a 30 per cent process improvement
