At Jules Lesmart, our mission is to make the Smart City concept and its technologies accessible to all public administrations in Belgium and abroad. We support all local authorities at every stage of their development, whether through consultancy, personalised support or the development of tailor-made solutions. Together, we help them meet the expectations of their staff and improve the quality of life of their citizens.
Understanding Smart Cities
We put our expertise at the service of local authorities to help them understand Smart City technologies. Thanks to our constant monitoring, we can identify innovative solutions tailored to their specific needs.
Strategic support
We carry out an in-depth analysis of the needs of local authorities, including a feasibility study and an urban diagnosis. From there, we draw up precise specifications and help select the best solution on the market.
Project monitoring
By entrusting us with the management of Smart City projects, our experts ensure rigorous monitoring, lightening the administration’s workload while guaranteeing concrete results.
Tailor-made solutions
Administrations have unique needs. We work with members of our ecosystem to develop fully customised solutions that meet their requirements.
our own solutions
Drawing on our expertise and close collaboration with public authorities, we have designed tools and solutions that respond directly to the specific challenges faced by local authorities.
Every service we offer is designed to provide you with a simple, effective and forward-looking solution. Together, we’ll build a government that’s more connected, smarter and closer to its citizens.
