Implementasi Smart City di Kota Tangerang Selatan Banten

Abstract

Abstract. This research discusses the implementation of the Smart City policy in South Tangerang City, Banten, Indonesia as a response to regional autonomy demands and the complexity of urban issues. As an innovative concept, Tangsel Smart City focuses on providing solutions to community problems through the application of Information and Communication Technology (ICT). Through innovation and renewal, the South Tangerang City Government has successfully increased efficiency in public services, especially in licensing, taxation, and budgeting. This study is based on the Decree Number 134.43/Head.220-Legal/2017 and Memorandum of Understanding between the Ministry of Communication and Information Technology and the Local Government of South Tangerang City. Although the implementation of Smart City in Tangsel has brought positive changes, there are challenges such as the lack of supporting application functions, suboptimal socialization, difficulties in inter-agency integration, and security issues. The aim of this research is to provide an in-depth overview of the Smart City policy implementation, evaluate its effectiveness, and identify opportunities and challenges. It is hoped that the results of this research contribute to both practical and theoretical understanding of Smart City implementation in autonomous regions, serve as a guide for further research, and encourage continuous efforts to improve the quality of public services through the Smart City concept.
