Transformation of Digital Technologies in Local Government

Abstract

There is little theoretical justification for integrated management in municipalities. This especially concerns the need to formulate the concept and use of digital technologies for municipalities at various levels. This implies the need to take into account the core values characteristic of public organizations, in particular public associations and individuals involved in this process. The problem of digitalization has been considered in many areas, but at the municipal level there are only the results of fragmentary descriptions, and, most often, only at the level of converting previously created content into digital format. The authors show various approaches to the use of digital technologies in management: e-government, digital city, smart city, digital projects in municipalities, digitalization of administration, information and communication technologies in state and municipal government. This study examines a rarely considered aspect, namely the transformation of digital technologies in the management process at the city level, as well as its impact on urban infrastructure assets. Besides, the study attempts to methodize the objects of the municipal structure in a digital format and to attract the attention of the practical world to the value that a complex development system integrated into digital space can bring to the system.
