Course Overview

The distance between a working prototype of IoT for smart cities and facilities and a system the business can depend on is where most budgets disappear. Most organisations now hold more data about cities and facilities than they can actually act on. Comparative studies of this strand of digital and data-driven work across sectors find the same handful of failure points recurring. The difficulty is not agreeing that IoT for smart cities and facilities matters — it is deciding what to stop doing to make room for it. The teaching approach is deliberately practical: participants build a delivery roadmap for this area of digital and data-driven work as they go. Participants gain a clear basis for measuring what cities and facilities has actually achieved. The material serves both public bodies and commercial organisations dealing with IoT for smart cities and facilities. Content is organised around the decisions practitioners actually face in cities and facilities, not around theory headings. Work concludes with a self-assessment of the digital and data-driven work discipline that participants can repeat annually.

Expected Learning Outcomes

01

Establish version control and rollback for every component of IoT for smart cities and facilities that reaches production.

02

Prepare the human side of cities and facilities: who is retrained, who is redeployed, and when they are told.

03

Establish monitoring that detects model or service degradation in IoT for smart cities and facilities before users report it.

04

Evaluate the bias, fairness and explainability obligations attaching to cities and facilities.

05

Design a training and briefing approach that sustains competence in IoT for smart cities and facilities.

06

Handle the trade-offs in cities and facilities between speed, cost and assurance explicitly rather than implicitly.

07

Adapt recognised practice on IoT for smart cities and facilities to local constraints without hollowing it out.

Session 2What has to be agreed before work on IoT for smart cities and facilities starts

  • List the data sources IoT for smart cities and facilities consumes and confirm each has a named owner.
  • Confirm the retention and deletion rules applied to data inside cities and facilities.
  • Design the pilot for IoT for smart cities and facilities so that a negative result is still useful.
