Abstract Currently, much attention is being given to integrating smart city solutions aimed at eliminating systemic inefficiencies with a focus on integrated decision-making, interoperability and collaboration. However, the concepts of integrated decision-making have preceded the recent wave of integration by half a century. There are concerns that the hype in smart city integration is detached from existing integrated planning and management practices, which are well-rooted in complexity science and built upon decades of practice. The contribution of this paper is to contextualize new smart city solutions for integrated city planning and management within the framework of South African policy tools, with the aim of identifying synergies and gaps for future research. This is achieved by carrying out a literature review of existing and emerging tools for integrated decision-making in South African cities and performing a subsequent gap analysis.
