Introduction
Analysis of the core framework of the standard
GB/T40761-2021, as an equivalent adopted standard of ISO37104:2019, has constructed an urban sustainable development management system based on the PDCA cycle. The core framework includes:
- Six major sustainability objectives: attractiveness, environmental protection, resilience, etc.
- 12 action areas: governance innovation, health care, infrastructure, etc.
- Five-step implementation process: government commitment → benchmark assessment → strategy formulation → action plan → performance evaluation
Comparison of key implementation elements
| Element dimensions | GB/T40759 requirements | GB/T40761 implementation points |
|---|---|---|
| Leadership role | Establish policy direction | A formal document must be formed through municipal resolutions. The case shows that Paris has implemented its commitment through the "100 Hectares Charter" |
| Benchmark Assessment | Identify Current Status and Gaps | It is recommended to use a 6×12 cross-matrix analysis (such as the Hangzhou public bicycle system assessment case) |
| Stakeholder Engagement | Ensure stakeholder involvement | Tianjin Eco-City’s typical practice of collecting residents’ feedback through the "Eco-Dreamer" platform |
Typical Application Cases
Hangzhou Public Bicycle System
Through standardized management:
- Daily maximum rental volume of 448,600
- 96% of users use it for free
- Annual reduction of 2.2949 million tons of CO₂
Key measures: 300-meter service point density, universal payment system, insurance guarantee mechanism
Paris Sunflower Project
Achievements of the rooftop agriculture program:
- 12 hectares of rooftop greening has been completed
- 18 jobs have been created
- Annual production of 128,000 kilograms of organic agricultural products
Innovation: public-private partnership model, LinkedIn professional network building
Implementation recommendations
- Diagnosis phase Prioritize the use of the cross-matrix tool (Appendix C) to ensure coverage of the 12 action areas
- Strategy formulation needs to be linked to the United Nations SDGs goals, especially Goal 11 (Sustainable Cities)
- Establish a two-level monitoring: action plan execution + actual impact assessment (refer to ISO37120 indicators)
- Small and medium-sized cities can address resource constraints through regional collaboration (Chapter 6 Support Measures)
