Seoul City Strengthens Apartment Management Transparency... Establishes 'S-APT'

[Asia Economy Reporter Onyu Lim] The Seoul Metropolitan Government announced on the 25th that it has completed the establishment of the platform 'S-APT' to enhance transparency in apartment management and will begin its full-scale distribution.

S-APT consists of four systems: electronic approval, electronic document disclosure, document distribution between local governments and apartment complexes, and disaster situation propagation.

The electronic approval system standardizes document formats that varied from apartment to apartment, improving management work efficiency. Documents approved electronically can be accessed by any resident via computer or smartphone.

The city plans to pilot S-APT in 250 complexes starting from the 26th and will mandate its use in all 2,500 apartment complexes subject to mandatory management from next year.

Apartment complexes subject to mandatory management include those with 300 or more households, those with 150 or more households having elevators, and those with 150 or more households using central heating.

Kim Seong-bo, Director of the Housing and Architecture Headquarters of Seoul, said, "S-APT is a comprehensive platform that embodies the efforts to practice 'Making Clear Apartments' in one place."
