Tilisi Takes Big Step Towards Becoming A Smart City

Tilisi Development Plc has signed a partnership agreement with DoubleGDP. The deal will ensure that Tilisi provide software to enable Tilisi developers and residents to access crucial information and services. Located 30 km away from the CBD, Tilisi plans to design an app to aid processes and communication between residents, property managers, Tilisi, and service providers. They will all have the opportunity to pay bills via said app.

As one of the smart cities currently under development in Kenya, Tilisi will benefit from a wide range of software services that will allow city planners to better engage community stakeholders in the process of developing infrastructure, selling property, and supporting residents.

“We’re very excited to partner with DoubleGDP. This partnership will result in improved processes, better data and information, and clearer communication with our buyers and residents,” said Ranee Nanji, Co-CEO of Tilisi Developments PLC.

DoubleGDP is a software services provider that enables new cities to connect with residents and deliver responsive public services while accelerating growth. New city developments are a concept that has grown rapidly over the last decade and it is expected to continue gaining traction across many parts of the world, especially in Africa and Latin America.

DoubleGDP’s software is designed to make municipal and community services more efficient, accountable, adaptable, and responsive. It makes frequently used processes more easily repeatable in order to allow for more efficient and more equitable services. In addition, it offers easy-to-use communication tools so residents and businesses can provide feedback and feel heard. The use of such software removes the need for each individual city to develop its own software thereby saving time and valuable resources.

With this partnership, Tilisi Developers will have access to features that enable them to submit requests, track status, upload documents, and receive notifications in the Tilisi Development Control “DRC” Approval Process. The software will also allow developers to know where they are in the development and approval process, and know what steps they need to take to advance. Other features for residents include incident reporting, city repairs, and other municipal requests.

“It was a great experience visiting Tilisi where I saw firsthand their potential to be a vital logistics hub and new town in a beautiful setting. We are proud to provide them with agile software to help them achieve their powerful vision. DoubleGDP will partner closely with Tilisi towards enabling them to meet their goal of providing an excellent experience to both residents and businesses within the city.” said Nolan Myers the DoubleGDP CEO.
