Abstract In this study, the Smart University came out of the concept of smart cities by applying the principles of smart cities to the operation of university. The Smart University is a vision where the University, as a platform, provides foundational context data to deliver the university of the future. To deal with this reality, the researcher developed a framework for transforming a traditional university into a Smart University, which is more efficient, effective, and has more involvement from both students and teachers, all working together to accomplish the shared goal of improved learning. To achieve this objective, the researchers propose to develop a Technology Management Framework that will address issues and challenges to be considered in establishing and adopting a Smart University in the Philippines. The study will also measure the level of preparedness on Smart Universities among the students, teachers, university administrators, and IT consultant and practitioners that serve in different government agencies. Finally, the paper will also address adaptability of universities and to measure the Level of Smartness of Universities in Metro Manila. This study adopts a mixed-method approach that combines qualitative and quantitative research approaches. The authors also used the sequential exploratory design method. The researchers applied the Nominal Group Technique to acquire knowledge from the group of experts for the qualitative portion of the study. Cronbach's alpha is used by the authors for the designed survey instruments that are taken from the Nominal group. Cronbach's alpha is a tool used to evaluate the internal consistency, or reliability, of a collection of scale or test items. The researchers used the Friedman non-parametric hypothesis test for the Level of Smartness ranking. The outcome of the survey instrument uncovers the strength and weaknesses based on the Level of Smartness every university participant. The authors concluded that the developed Technology Management Framework for Smart University System in the Philippines is aligned with the literature and the available systems and applications. These standards are clustered in the three pillars and five criteria, which will guide the academic institutions on establishing Smart University. The three pillars are Technology Infrastructure, Educational Pedagogy, and Government Collaboration together with the five major criteria (Learning Environment, Educational Technology, Academic System, Governance, Health Services) and the application of a roadmap will support the success rate of Smart University in the Philippines. This leads to increasing the efficiency and responsiveness of the academic institution, holistic educational system, dynamic & safer academic community, and exceptional student experience. © 2021 ACM.
