Abstract

In the context of high uncertainty and rapid change in the field of information technology, the effective application of agile project management methodologies is becoming increasingly relevant. However, in practice, the degree of flexibility can vary significantly depending on contextual factors. The aim of this study is to analyze which factors influence the level of project management flexibility in Russian IT companies.The research was conducted through an online survey of professionals working in the field of innovation project management. The level of flexibility was assessed using a scoring system based on responses to four key areas: requirements gathering, planning, communication with the customer, and communication within the team. The resulting scores were compared with characteristics of the respondents such as experience, industry, company size, team size, and the perceived innovativeness of the project.The article presents the results of the analysis of the relationship between these factors and the level of project management flexibility. The findings show that the most significant influence is exerted by the manager’s experience and the degree of project innovativeness, while company size and team size are not decisive factors.
