Abstract	The core aim of this chapter is to evaluate, critically analyze, and assess the strategic, operational, and management aspects of smart cities development in Oman. Also, to investigate the current urbanization challenges that are encountered to convert the central cities in the Sultanate of Oman to be smart sustainable cities by domesticating intelligent technologies and implementing sustainable solutions. Moreover, the study highlights the major urban issues particularly in Muscat (capital city of Oman) after the huge increase in its population in the last two decades which is 1.5 million, i.e., 30% of Oman's total population. The inspiration for this research is generated from the national strategic and development plans for digital government transformation including the Oman Vision 2040 and the Sustainable Development Oman 2030. Additionally, the global pandemic COVID-19 has highlighted the importance of digitalization, speeded up the adoption of e-services, and appeared as a smart city advocate for both public and private sectors. Thus, the government is working on the digital transformation of 80% of the vital public services in the next few years. © 2024 selection and editorial matter, Chandan Swaroop Meena, Ashwani Kumar, Varun Pratap Singh, and Aritra Ghosh; individual chapters, the contributors.
