Kohima Smart City
Kohima Smart City optimizes its urban services with AVEVA Unified Operations Center
Kohima, the capital of the state of Nagaland, is home to nearly 300,000 residents and is one of the 100 cities recognized by India's Smart Cities Mission. The city suffered from a lack of visibility into its heterogeneous services and applications, as well as a lack of consolidated data that slowed response times to residents and caused costly downtime. The need to strengthen urban resilience and the management of physical and environmental resources called for an integrated platform. Deploying AVEVA Unified Operations Center made it possible to build a unified technology foundation to manage all civic services. The results live up to the ambitions: about 20% energy savings for the city, operational efficiency up about 40% thanks to critical indicators and notifications enabling preventive corrective action, and time to market accelerated by three months thanks to early project design and deployment.
