Most people use various smart devices in their homes such as smart meters and voice assistants, so it should be no surprise that cities would go in the same direction.

Innovative construction companies use the same devices to design and make cities “smarter”, unified through BIM-integrated systems and automation. Designing, building, and maintaining smart cities is very important, but can be very expensive. When planned carefully, they provide:

• continual improvement
• a safer environment
• healthier lives for their residents
• happiness for their inhabitants and visitors
• great opportunities for their engineers, designers, and other professionals to drive projects that remove social and construction barriers toward responsible and long-term innovations.

Smart cities collect data in real time and keep a log of these data to optimize decision-making on how to:

• prevent traffic jams
• promote eco-friendly development.

The biggest smart city projects could amount to more than $100 billion. Finding the right financing is not difficult, as it contributes to durable and conclusive changes in construction and communities.
