Problems and prospects of developing an algorithm for flexible project management in the field of wholesale sales

The article is devoted to the study of the current state of problems and prospects for the development of an algorithm for flexible project management in the field of wholesale sales. Theoretical foundations of project and flexible management are revealed, the possibilities and ways of their integration are clarified. It is revealed that flexible management can become an instrumental basis for the reproduction of project management by providing radically new conditions for organizing project activities. Among the changes in the integration of project and flexible management, it is worth considering: organizing the activities of project teams that will act on the principles of co–organization and influence on the final result; application of a new delegation of authority scheme; redistribution and fragmentation of tasks into small tasks; rejection of phased implementation towards parallelization of project management; return to the previous stages of project activities in case of need to make changes; the establishment of new complementary projects to ensure a better outcome; rejection of downtime of individual groups in favor of a permanent distribution of tasks. These changes are positive effects in the implementation of projects based on flexible methodology. Based on the results of the study, the nature of the advantages and disadvantages of implementing flexible project management in the field of wholesale sales is demonstrated, conclusions are drawn about the possibilities and limitations of the development of appropriate algorithms and the nature of their testing.
