Across Europe and beyond, a clear trend is emerging in public lighting procurement.<\/span><\/p>

More and more cities and utilities are moving away from purchasing an all-in-one lighting management solution from one single vendor. Instead, they structure their projects in two distinct phases:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

  1. Select a multi-supplier Central Management Software (CMS)<\/b> that will become the long-term operational platform.<\/span><\/li>
  2. Launch separate tenders<\/b> for light point controllers, cabinet controllers, installation and commissioning services.<\/span><\/li><\/ol>

    This evolution marks an important milestone in the maturity of the smart outdoor lighting market.<\/span><\/p>

    Public lighting has become a strategic digital infrastructure. The software platform chosen today will often remain in operation for more than a decade while field equipment continues to evolve.<\/p>

    Cities are therefore looking for solutions that provide:<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

      Rather than purchasing a closed ecosystem, cities are investing in an open operational platform that can adapt to future needs. This vision has long been at the heart of Citylinx. Our platform was designed from day one as a multi-supplier, open and extensible solution, enabling cities to integrate technologies from many manufacturers while preparing for future smart city services. We don\u2019t manufacture any hardware. We don\u2019t recommend any hardware supplier. But we work with and enhance all hardware from any equipment supplier, particularly those who play the open game.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

      This market evolution also creates an important strategic question for manufacturers of light point controllers and cabinet controllers. Should you continue to invest in maintaining your own software stack? Or should you focus on what differentiates you most: your hardware and embedded intelligence, while partnering with open multi-supplier platforms such as Citylinx?<\/p>

      By working together, manufacturers can expose the full capabilities of their devices through an independent software platform while benefiting from:<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

        Smart city projects are becoming larger, more connected and more complex every year.<\/p>

        Lighting increasingly interacts with traffic management, parking, environmental sensors, energy management, work order management systems and automated city workflows. No single company can innovate across every layer of this ecosystem alone. This is particularly true for hardware suppliers while their main focus is to develop world-class hardware and firmware.<\/p>

        Success now depends on strong partnerships between software platforms and hardware manufacturers, to make integrators and cities\u2019 life easier. Open standards, interoperability and collaboration are no longer optional. They are becoming essential ingredients for delivering resilient, future-proof city infrastructure.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
