Foreword

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.

The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives ).

Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents ).

This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 268, Sustainable cities and communities.

Introduction

The United Nations (UN) sustainable development agenda, “Transforming Our World: The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development”, was adopted by world leaders in New York in September 2015. Through 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and 169 targets, this agenda aims to end poverty and promote prosperity and well-being by 2030, while reducing the adverse impact of human activities on the environment. The UN SDGs address cities directly through Goal 11, which aims to “Make cities inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable”.

This document was developed in response to an increasing demand from city and community leaders for a simple-to-use, high-level diagnostic tool that will give them an overview of the extent to which they are implementing good practices. The maturity model described in this document has been developed in close collaboration with several pilot cities, including: Birmingham, UK; Cambridge, UK; Glasgow, UK; London, UK; Peterborough, UK; Dubai, UAE; Tianjin, China; Singapore; Moscow, Russia; Sydney, Australia.

This document is structured in five parts:

• Clause 1 describes the scope of the Maturity Model for Smart Sustainable Communities (MMSSC);
• Clause 2 lists normative references;
• Clause 3 sets out the terms and definitions used in this document;
• Clause 4 describes the methodology and principles used in development of the MMSSC;
• Clause 5 presents the structure of the MMSSC that has resulted from this development process, and gives guidance on how to use the MMSSC, looking at
  • how to use the MMSSC to baseline current maturity of a community,
  • how to use the MMSSC to drive improved performance in future, and
  • how to use the MMSSC in conjunction with other maturity models that address specific elements of smart-enabled sustainable development in more detail (such as CEN’s smart mature resilience model, and the quality assurance matrix for the key functions of local government described in ISO 18091).

1 Scope

This document provides a top-level maturity model for smart sustainable communities (MMSSC), which can be used for self-assessment by individual cities and communities and as the basis for cross-city benchmarking. The MMSSC is a simple way for community leaders to assess how mature their community is in its journey towards adoption of good practices as set out in ISO standards for sustainable and smart-enabled development; to identify strengths and weaknesses; and then to quickly find their way to the international standards and guidance that are most relevant to their needs.
