Prospects and Trends of Digitalization of Project Management in the Region

Relevance. Digital transformation at the present stage in the Russian Federation seems to be a complex and ambitious task, the successful implementation of which depends on the adaptability of public authorities to digital changes and their restructuring to new decision-making processes. Despite the fact that digital technologies were one of the last to enter the public administration sector, their implementation has made it possible to speed up the process of solving large-scale and operational problems. Improving the efficiency of the state and regional management system can be identified as a key factor in the sustainable development of the economy of the Russian Federation. Its stability is ensured as a result of the formation, legislative consolidation and existence of control over the implementation of government programs. In this regard, the digitalization of project management is of particular relevance, since it is the driving force for regional development and is used to eliminate development imbalances. The purpose is to study the prospects and identify trends in the digitalization of project management in the region.

Objectives: to consider the concepts of digitalization and digital transformation, to identify the directions of the digitalization process of public administration at the present stage in the Russian Federation, to form ideas about software products to be implemented in the public administration sector and to propose directions for further development of the process of digitalization of the public administration sector of project activities.

Methodology. In the process of studying the topic under consideration, methods such as analysis, synthesis, generalization, logical, and graphic methods of information processing were used.

Results. Project management of the region seems to be a promising and effective way to eliminate the imbalance of regional development, therefore the introduction of specialized software products with functionality specific to the needs is a strategic task.

Conclusions. In order to improve project management of regional development, a comprehensive software product is proposed for implementation. Further development of regional project management is not possible without the creation of a general information system that allows for unified management of all projects in the region.
