An integrated method for evaluating the effectiveness of projects in the field of information technology has been proposed, which could ensure effective management decision-making. All features inherent in the implementation of the Scrum methodology used in the management of information technology projects have been taken into consideration. Ambiguous situations that constantly arise during the implementation of projects affect their effectiveness. Therefore, constant monitoring of the project efficiency would provide opportunities for the project manager to make management decisions promptly, which could contribute to improving the efficiency of the project. The integrated method for evaluating the effectiveness of projects was devised in the class of organizational-technological systems based on the combined use of formalized, intelligent, and expert methods. The results of applying a given method include an increase in the project efficiency by 1.52 % by complying with time limits, a reduction in the overspending of financial resources and losses during the project, as well as the improved productivity of teamwork. A model of the project efficiency index has been devised, which would ensure taking into consideration the peculiarities of the organizational and technological components of the project, as well as establishing a logical connection between the criteria that characterize the organizational component of the project, on the one hand, and the project-technological component, on the other. The resulting project efficiency index contributes to further research of various alternative scenarios for the project implementation and forecasts the dynamics of achieving strategic goals, as well as the dynamics of process implementation. The proposed procedure for evaluating the effectiveness of the project under Scrum conditions could become the basis of the information technology of project management and the appropriate decision support system
The research and substantiation of the conceptual procedure of evaluation of efficiency of IT projects which are realized on the basis of application of flexible methodology of Scrum is offered. This procedure will increase the efficiency of the IT project, as well as reduce its implementation time. The substantiation and choice of the criterion for evaluating the effectiveness of the IT project, which takes into account the human factor, is presented. Evaluation is based on human resources research, namely the characteristics of project team members. Conceptually, the procedure for evaluating the effectiveness of an IT project is a complex multi-stage iterative process that requires consideration of the team implementation of IT project processes. The transparency of Scrum's general terms and standards of flexible methodology provides the possibility of the expected result. Therefore, continuous evaluation of performance at each stage of Scrum will increase productivity and help to identify deviations at an early stage, when they can be quickly eliminated or corrected. Based on this, we can identify the following main stages of evaluating the effectiveness of IT projects implemented in the flexible methodology of Scrum. An integrated indicator of project team competence was obtained, which provides opportunities to reconcile the company's IT goals and opportunities to reduce requirements, as well as the decision to continue research by expanding existing options or synthesis of new options with appropriate variation of indicators, weights, composition of elements. Conclusions are made about the possibility of applying the research in the development of an intelligent system for evaluating the effectiveness of the IT project based on determining the level of competence of project team members, which will reduce project implementation time and increase IT project efficiency.
