Cascais has followed the trend, by creating a specified division within Cascais Municipal Council (CMC) in 2015. As a result, the topics of managing data and innovative systems became relevant to the local council, to achieve its ultimate goal of improving quality of lifefor both citizens and visitors. Over the years, CMC felt the need to monitor its strategy success by using specific measures.
