Abstract:

Currently, project management (PM) has been recognized worldwide and has become the main management tool in economy and mostly in business in European and Asian states. In the Russian Federation, the need to move to the principles of project management in the public sector arose due to the economy modernization, implementation of infrastructure and innovation projects, territorial cluster development. The advantage of project management is that it provides detail and transparency of activities, improves the quality of the results obtained, and shortens the time for achieving them. The relevance of the application of project management has increased in the framework of the transition to the program-target principle of budget planning.

 It is assumed that through the effective implementation of interrelated projects it is possible to achieve the targets of state programs and strategies for social and economic development of the regions. The paper considers the ways to adapt international experience of project management in public administration, and also describe the Russian perspective.
