Classification of parameters of innovative projects in the framework of digital transformation programs for sustainable development of industrial enterprises

Abstract

The task of determining the parameters of an innovative project, their composition and structure is a crucial stage in the design and development of an innovative project within the framework of digital transformation. A refined classification of the parameters of an innovative project, considering the specifics of projects aimed at digital transformation of the enterprises, operating in the manufacturing sector, is proposed. The classification separates the parameters of innovative projects into 2 key categories: target parameters and controlled or limiting parameters. When applied to innovative project parameters in digital transformation, target parameters are further divided into gradual and optional types; controlled or limiting parameters constitute basic structure of innovative projects and include road-map and time allocation, costs, market parameters, human resources, technological readiness, regulatory norms. The presented approach leaves room for further research based on additional real case data and risk evaluation, standard and accepted deviations of the project results analysis.
