Possibility to use decision-making methods for project management information system

Abstract

Project management in today's world is an important task that requires constant decision-making to successfully complete projects. Project Management Information Systems (IMS) help with this, but their ability to use decision-making methods is often limited and the decision-making process itself is the responsibility of the project manager or other stakeholders. However, the use of decision-making techniques can significantly improve the efficiency and effectiveness of project management by considering various factors and alternatives. In the course of the study, an analysis of decision-making methods, such as the method of decision-making based on data, the method of optimization, the method of selecting scenarios, the method of prioritization, the method of balancing resources, the method of multi-criteria analysis, was carried out for the possibility of integration into the modules of the IMS to improve project management. The classification of project management information systems based on modules is also presented and described and a description of these modules is provided. As a result, it is found that the method of selecting scenarios, the method of prioritization and the method of multi-criteria analysis can be effectively used in separate, defined, modules for decision-making in the project environment. Integrating these methods into the IMS can help project managers make better decisions that meet the needs and goals of the project. This study confirms the importance of using decision-making techniques in IMS to improve project management. The integration of these methods will reduce risks, optimize costs and increase management efficiency. These findings stimulate further development of the functionality of the IMS and contribute to further research in this area.
