Abstract

Smart city is emerging as a response to mitigate the
problems of fast urbanization and unpredictability of
standards, policies, and citizens’ needs in urban areas. For a
city to be smart, integration of city systems is essential in order
to provide flexibility and access to real-time information for
creation and delivery of efficient services. Business Process
Change (BPC) is essential for systems integration in smart city
development. Similar to BPC in Enterprise Systems
Integration (ESI) for the private sector, changing business
processes for smart cities encompasses a number of challenges
and opportunities. This research-in-progress considers a city as
an enterprise and attempts to develop a framework to address
the business process-centric challenges in smart city
development. ESI approaches, techniques, and tools will be
utilized in this context. Thus, the proposed framework will
identify and address BPC challenges in all steps of BPC for
smart cities, using BPC tools, techniques, and approaches in
ESI.
