Full textAbstract:
Often when public agencies allocate funding for transportation programs, evaluation of a project’s performance becomes an afterthought, if a consideration at all. Relatively recently, evaluation of project performance has garnered attention as a means for both assessing how cost-effectively public funds help attain transportation and air quality objectives and guiding future public investment decisions. Nonetheless, these efforts suffer at times from a lack of coordination and would benefit from the application of a standardized method. Such a standardized method is applied to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of three categories of transportation control measure (TCM) projects: fixed-route transit, transportation demand management (TDM), and alternative fuel projects. The method provides a means for estimating and quantifying travel mode effects and converting them to net emissions benefits. Three sets of funding programs implemented in California were the subjects of evaluation efforts in which the standardized method was applied. The results of these evaluations are presented, and conclusions are suggested about project cost-effectiveness on the basis of project data and comparisons across categories of projects. On the basis of the evaluation of 58 projects, TDM projects other than telecommunications projects were cost-effective compared with alternative fuel and fixed-route transit projects. In light of the key evaluation findings, an approach and framework for future evaluations of TCM projects to ensure consistency and comparability are proposed. Some future uses of the evaluation data in the form of a centralized database are also suggested.

Full textAbstract:
The research and substantiation of the conceptual procedure of evaluation of efficiency of IT projects which are realized on the basis of application of flexible methodology of Scrum is offered. This procedure will increase the efficiency of the IT project, as well as reduce its implementation time. The substantiation and choice of the criterion for evaluating the effectiveness of the IT project, which takes into account the human factor, is presented. Evaluation is based on human resources research, namely the characteristics of project team members. Conceptually, the procedure for evaluating the effectiveness of an IT project is a complex multi-stage iterative process that requires consideration of the team implementation of IT project processes. The transparency of Scrum's general terms and standards of flexible methodology provides the possibility of the expected result. Therefore, continuous evaluation of performance at each stage of Scrum will increase productivity and help to identify deviations at an early stage, when they can be quickly eliminated or corrected. Based on this, we can identify the following main stages of evaluating the effectiveness of IT projects implemented in the flexible methodology of Scrum. An integrated indicator of project team competence was obtained, which provides opportunities to reconcile the company's IT goals and opportunities to reduce requirements, as well as the decision to continue research by expanding existing options or synthesis of new options with appropriate variation of indicators, weights, composition of elements. Conclusions are made about the possibility of applying the research in the development of an intelligent system for evaluating the effectiveness of the IT project based on determining the level of competence of project team members, which will reduce project implementation time and increase IT project efficiency.

Full textAbstract:
Nowadays in the world, public structures are just as often and fundamentally pre-evaluating investment projects using a proven methodology as private investors. This allows them to predict the results of the investment project implementation and to make final conclusions about the effectiveness of the investment project compared to the actual indicators. Moreover, there is a clear tendency to reduce the volume of projects for which pre-selection-evaluation procedures are applied, before making a decision on their implementation. On the example of Georgia, despite the fact that a normative base for pre-selection and evaluation of investment projects has been created with the involvement of donor organizations, we have not been able to find even one case of selection and evaluation of investment projects at the municipal level (except the capital). Therefore, the aim of our research is to identify the circumstances that prevent municipalities from pre-evaluating investment projects, analyze the challenges municipal authorities faces in this area, make appropriate conclusions and develop recommendations to solve the existing challenges. There was approved "Investment Project Management Guide" by the Government Resolution №191 on the management of public investment projects (22.04.2016); The management methodology of investment project was approved y the order of the Minister of Finance of Georgia N165 (22.07.2016) and according to them, public investment projects with a value of 5 million GEL or more were subject to selection and evaluation. According to the international practice, the above-mentioned guide and methodology suggests the use of CBA - Cost-Benefit Analysis and CEA - Cost-Effectiveness Analysis methods for the evaluation of alternative projects. Cost-benefit analysis in the evaluation of a public investment project is characterized by certain specific features, which is reflected in the fact that the evaluation of costs and benefits of the investment project goes beyond the narrow spectrum of financial indicators of the implementing agency and is done in a broader economic context. It is called as economic cost-benefit, which refers to the estimation of costs and benefits in the context of society as a whole, including possibly costs and benefits for which market prices are sometimes not directly observable. Therefore, in order to evaluate investment projects with this approach, it is necessary to have a number of statistical data and information in the target area of the project, depending on the specifics of the project, which in most cases are impossible to obtain at the municipal level. Therefore, they are not able to use the cost-benefit approach when evaluating alternative projects. However, as our observations have shown, this is not the only reason and there are other interceptive conditions. In that case when it is not possible to calculate the benefits of project implementation with sufficient accuracy, it is advisable to use cost-effectiveness analysis to evaluate projects. That should be relatively simple for the municipalities, however, in the 10 municipalities we did surveys, there is not a single case of its usage and investment project evaluation in general has not been identified. In the process of the survey, from the respondents which represent the economic services of the municipalities, it was found that the majority (about 75%) are not well acquainted with the requirements of the above guide and methodology, about 80% do not have an economic education that will allow them to practice independently evaluate investment projects in the process of activities. After getting acquainted with the essence of the methods of cost-benefit analysis and cost-effectiveness analysis, the problem of finding relevant statistical indicators was named as the main obstacle to the process of evaluation of investment projects by these methods. They also emphasize that the lack of statistical information at the municipal level also delays the effective implementation of the municipality's activities in many other areas. As a result of the conducted research, we can conclude that in order to effectively conduct the pre-selection-evaluation process of investment projects at the municipal level following issues has to be considered: • Increase the qualifications of relevant staff of municipal bodies and provide them with relevant knowledge and skills to be able to evaluate investment projects funded by the municipality using a proven methodology based on objective analysis. Moreover, in order to achieve this, except providing staff training, we also consider it advisable to appoint experienced external consultants (Coach) to the municipalities at the first stage, who will offer their staff on-the-job training; • As a result of the cooperation between the Municipalities and the National Statistics Office, the list of key statistical information that is critical to the effective implementation of municipal government should be defined and the National Statistics Office should be responsible for collecting, processing and delivering it to municipalities; • Municipalities should evaluate investment projects in the first stage using the cost-effectiveness analysis method, and after purchasing the relevant competencies and providing the necessary statistical information to the relevant staff, gradually introduce other methods, including the cost-benefit analysis method; • After implementing the given recommendations, a amendment should be made in the relevant government decree and the cost of the investment projects that will be subject to selection-evaluation by the above-mentioned methodology should be reduced to 1 million GEL. There is no doubt that the implementation of these mentioned recommendations will give a number of positive results to the municipalities, among which we should first of all mention the increase in the efficiency and effectiveness of public finance spending.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to describe the potential benefits of value chain analysis (VCA) improvement projects by evaluating their effectiveness for all chain members. Design/methodology/approach The study uses an action research approach to extend VCA methodology by implementing an improvement project developed through the VCA process, and the subsequent evaluation of this project using a combination of techniques. Findings The paper addressed a key research gap around the evaluation of improvement projects and has shown that the implementation of VCA, both as a guiding framework for developing interventions and a basis for evaluating their effectiveness, can provide significant benefits to all industry stakeholders. Research limitations/implications The research focussed on evaluating the outcomes of a single project within an industry case study. While the diversity in different industry structures and the range of improvement projects possible makes it difficult to generalise the findings, the methodology and evaluation options make a valuable practical and theoretical contribution. Practical implications The case study highlights the advantages of improvement projects guided by VCA and offers a variety of evaluation options for both private and public sector VCA practitioners. Originality/value This study is one of the very few to evaluate the implementation of activities identified during the diagnostic phase of an agribusiness VCA.

Ensuring the sustainable development of the economy depends to a large extent on the implementation of the innovative model, in which the innovation infrastructure plays a key role. The growing number of technoparks in Ukraine has increased the requirements for economic substantiations for decision-making regarding the expediency of implementing their innovative projects. The search for appropriate methods and approaches to project evaluation has determined the actuality of the research topic. The article summarizes the methods of evaluating innovative projects, identifies their advantages and disadvantages. Besides, it reveals the features of the evaluation of innovative projects of technoparks. The novelty of the work is the proposed methodological approach to the evaluation of the efficiency of innovative technopark projects, which takes into account the specifics of the Ukrainian legislation. The methodological approach is based on the generally accepted performance indicators in the world: Net Present Value, Profitability Index, Internal Rate of Return, and Payback Period. Special accounts of technology parks, their participants, and joint ventures are a separate element in the calculation formulas. The application of the proposed methodological approach will accelerate the process of selection of innovative projects and their implementation, activation of innovative activities, and the sustainable development of the state. The proposed methodological approach is tested in the evaluation of the innovative project of the technopark of the E. O. Paton Electric Welding Institute and confirmed the effectiveness of its implementation.

The article "The use of strategic characteristics in assessing effectiveness of innovation projects" examines the role of strategic indicators in selecting the optimal innovation project and determines the main approaches to the effectiveness assessment. The research relevance is defined by the fact that in the current context, because of a serious lag in the innovation sphere, there is a need to assess innovation implementation.The objective is to develop the methods for evaluating investment projects, in particular, the research and test of the Balanced Scorecard (BSC).Numerous studies of domestic and foreign scientists, namely A.K. Klochkov, D. Pammenter, K.F. Gray, E.U. Larson, N.I. Chupakhin, E.M. Rogova, A. Vikhrov, and P. Lekomtsev, concern the effectiveness assessment of the achievement of goals using the BSC. At the same time, some researchers focus on the issues of achieving the strategic and tactical goals of the organization.The introduction describes the degree of scientific development of the system for assessing the effectiveness of innovation. The article also explores economic and strategic complementary approaches, allowing us to identify general criteria via system analysis, economic analysis, business planning methods, and data analysis.The first part of the article presents the analysis of strategic indicators in terms of their grouping according to the criterion feature. This approach allows creating a goal tree, as well as the project effectiveness assessment in dynamics based on economic and strategic characteristics.Further, the second part of the article describes a hands-on example for evaluation of strategic indicators of an innovation project. The results of the qualitative assessment of the project confirmed the assumption that the investment decision can be applied using a strategic component.The integrated assessment allows us to conclude that Russian industrial enterprises that implement innovations can use the research results in their activities. Such an assessment breaks new ground for a comparative evaluation of investment projects.

Purpose This paper aims to investigate how project nature affects the effectiveness of knowledge transfer between projects in project-based organizations (PBOs) and to analyze the roles of inter-project communication, transfer intention and information technology (IT) in the influencing process. Design/methodology/approach This paper adopted a questionnaire survey method to collect data from construction enterprises in China and subsequently proceeded to structural equation modeling analysis with a total of 261 samples. Findings The results indicate that the similarity of projects could promote the inter-project communication and improve transfer intention, which further influences knowledge transfer effectiveness positively within PBOs. The urgency of projects has a negative impact on inter-project communication and transfer intention. The temporality of projects also negatively affects inter-project communication. They consequently hinder the knowledge transfer behaviors between projects. Additionally, the application of IT improves the frequency of communication and makes up for the negative impact of geographical distance between projects on knowledge transfer. Practical implications Based on the results, a series of strategies is recommended to improve knowledge transfer effectiveness between projects, including standardizing project management, promoting information construction, establishing a post-project evaluation system and creating a shared culture, so that the competitive advantages of PBOs could be improved. Originality/value The study explores the factors influencing knowledge transfer between projects from the perspective of project nature and provides guidance for enhancing knowledge management and project management practices.

Projects are very important to all organizations, as project managers view various issues in the organization from a higher perspective. The conclusions drawn from these projects determine the base on which various decisions affecting the organizations will be made. This paper introduces the statistical analysis tools used in various project environments to differentiate between the effective and ineffective tools of statistical analysis. Statistical analysis tools are useful in analyzing data collected for a study to be conducted on the same data. The literature review illustrates how statistical analysis tools have been effective and useful to researchers. Over time, more effective statistical tools will be invented that will improve the process of data analysis. The findings on different statistical analysis tools will also be highlighted. Thus, the discussions show the impact, applications, and lessons learned from the statistical analysis tools by the project managers and engineers. The study will also present the limitations, along with the conclusions and recommendations.

Optimizing projects with constrained renewable resources is one of the most important issues in the theory of project schedule management, as such optimization allows to substantially reduce project completion period and to enhance project resource efficiency. Certain methods for solving this problem had been developed and practiced in the Soviet times, but regrettably their effectiveness still have not been compared to that of methods developed in the other countries. The author�s findings concerning the effectiveness of those Soviet-time optimization methods are presented in this paper. The results are obtained through internationally-recognized computer simulation technique and with the use of The Project Scheduling Problem Library (PSPLIB) databases.

Objectives: Evaluation is essential for the management of international projects or networks in health technology assessment (HTA). It extends beyond the normal process of project management by incorporating qualitative dimensions and provides information about a project's effectiveness and achievements. This article aimed to identify the factors that are important for the success of international HTA projects. The European network for Health Technology Assessment Joint Action (EUnetHTA JA) is presented as an exemplar.Methods: Methods for the evaluation of international HTA projects include interviews, focus groups, questionnaires, observations and documentary review, and the key points of these approaches have been summarized. The impact and effectiveness of the EUnetHTA JA was evaluated by questionnaires of project participants and external stakeholders, and by documentary review.Results: The response rate for the three annual questionnaires sent to project participants ranged from 86 percent to 88 percent and for external stakeholders ranged from 65 percent to 88 percent. Key factors for project success included production of deliverables according to the workplan, achievement of objectives, added value generated, effective communication, involvement of external stakeholders, workstream management and progress from the preceding EUnetHTA 2006–2008 project.Conclusions: The experience of this project can inform the evaluation of future international HTA collaborations, such as the EUnetHTA 2nd Joint Action and HTAsiaLink. A high response rate was achieved to the self-completion questionnaires and the strategy followed is recommended for evaluation of international HTA projects. Future assessments of international HTA projects should strive to measure outcomes and impact, not just outputs and process.

Full textAbstract:
Augmented reality is a scientific field well known for more than twenty years. Although there is a huge number of projects that present promising results, the real usage of augmented reality applications for fulfilling common tasks is almost negligible. We believe that one of the principal reasons is insufficient usability of these applications. The situation is analogous to the desktop, mobile or cloud application development or even to the web pages design. The first phase of a technology adoption is the exploration of its potential. As soon as the technical problems are overcome and the technology is widely accepted, the usability is a principal issue. The usability is utmost important also from the business point of view. The cost of augmented reality implementation into the production process is substantial, therefore, the usability that is directly responsible for the implemented solution effectiveness must be appropriately tested. Consequently, the benefit of the implemented solution can be measured.This article briefly outlines common techniques used for usability evaluation. Discussed techniques were designed especially for evaluation of desktop applications, mobile solutions and web pages. In spite of this drawback, their application on augmented reality products is usually possible. Further, a review of existing augmented reality project evaluations is presented.Based on this review, a usability evaluation method for our augmented prototyping application is proposed. This method must overcome the fact that the design is a creative process. Therefore, it is not possible to take into account common criteria such as time consumption.

118 Background: The True NTH Initiative aims to improve the lives and experiences of men with prostate cancer, as well as those of their partners, family and caregivers. In Canada, Prostate Cancer Canada selected ten teams to develop, implement and evaluate evidence-informed programs focusing on decision support, clinical support, lifestyle management, education, social support, navigation and treatment follow-up. Project teams were encouraged to align their local evaluations with a common evaluation framework and a national evaluation plan was developed. The aim of this abstract is to share methodology and early results of a multi-level evaluation that will address a range of programs designed to improve the lives of men with prostate cancer. True NTH is funded globally by the Movember Foundation, and operates in Canada, USA, UK, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland and Singapore. Methods: Projects (Solutions) selected for the initiative had existing evidence for their efficacy. Project teams were responsible for designing the implementation of their Solution and an appropriate evaluation. Local and national evaluations used a recognized framework (RE-AIM) to systematically study the real world uptake of these interventions, focusing on questions of Reach, Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation, and Maintenance. Project teams provide quarterly narrative updates and annual written reports with quantitative measures and narrative components. Key informant interviews with project leads will complete the final national evaluation. Results: To date, projects have generated learning across different provincial health systems, academic institutions and community settings. Teams have learned to address challenges of participant recruitment and project endorsement, and have begun to appreciate the benefits of collaboration. Teams have also reflected on the importance of engaging clinicians in the implementation of their Solutions for effective uptake and sustainability. Conclusions: The results of the ongoing multi-level evaluation continue to provide insight into real world implementation of evidence-informed programs and the critical factors that enable their effectiveness.

The article examines and analyzes methodological approaches to the evaluation and selection of venture projects, found that in a dynamic environment, venture funds choose strategies to attract and prepare agreements that correspond to their experience and market position. The main stages of selection of venture projects have been formulated, which allows to formalize the process of selection of venture projects and make it as transparent, clear and simple as possible. The criterion base of indicators of evaluation and selection of venture projects has been investigated and systematized, which allows to formalize the process of their evaluation and making rational management decisions. Attracting and preparing agreements is one of the most important aspects of venture activity, which requires high competence, skills and abilities. Analysis of the scientific literature made it possible to identify different approaches to the evaluation and selection of venture projects. For evaluation and selection of venture projects, first of all, qualitatively prepared business plans are studied. In this case, applications for investment without a business plan are usually not considered by the funds at all. In such conditions, investors are helped by knowledge in the relevant sectors of the economy and understanding of the prospects for their development, this is equated with a preliminary discussion of the problem with colleagues or at meetings of fund managers, where a deeper assessment of business value. The main principles of assessing the effectiveness of investment in venture investment are: taking into account the specifics of the investment sector in order to calculate the payback period of investments and the level of their profitability, which is as close as possible to real; in the presence of a base of comparison of application of benchmarking; optimization of fund management costs; taking into account all financial flows of the project; comparison of the cost of borrowed capital and return on investment; reasonable distribution of financial resources between venture projects taking into account the criterion of their effectiveness, etc. the purpose of the examination of an innovative venture project is to assess the scientific and technical level of the project, the possibilities of its implementation and effectiveness, the consequences of its implementation. Based on the results of the study, decisions are made on the feasibility and volume of investment, which determines the basic principles of the examination, namely: the system of organization of expert work and the unity of its regulatory and methodological support; independence and legal protection of participants in the expert process, their competence and interest in obtaining objective results; scientific and economic substantiation of expert assessments, their orientation to the world level of development of science and technology, norms and rules of technogenic and ecological safety, requirements of standards and international agreements; objectivity of the received decisions according to results of examination. The main criteria for selecting a venture project are a well-prepared business plan, scientific and technical level of the project, its feasibility and effectiveness, and important indicators for evaluating the effectiveness of a venture project are indicators of internal rate of return, modified internal rate of return, net present value, payback period, discounted payback period, profitability of sales, the average rate of return.

The application involves cost-effectiveness comparison of six projects for environmental water recovery in the Murray-Darling Basin, Australia, managed by the New South Wales (NSW) Government under three programs: The Living Murray Initiative; the NSW Wetland Recovery Program; and the NSW Rivers Environmental Restoration Program. Focussing primarily on one of the projects — the Darling Anabranch Pipeline Project (DAPP) — allows an in-depth account to be presented of the ICEA framework’s application. Abatement and transaction costs, and public and private subsets of these costs, were accounted for in the applications. The adaptive efficiency of the DAPP (a “water-saving project”) is found provisionally — i.e., without accounting quantitatively for institutional lock-in costs — to exceed that of the five other environmental water recovery projects (including two “market-purchase projects”) evaluated. This finding is significant given a tendency for economists to presume that environmental water recovery is generally achieved more efficiently through market-purchase projects. With water management, and environmental management more broadly, exposed to increasing uncertainty, adaptive efficiency will grow in importance as a metric for economic evaluation. The application of the ICEA framework documented in this paper can guide researchers in applying this metric to evaluations of projects and policies implemented in, or proposed for, this domain.

Nowadays, leading world companies widely use methodology, standards, and project management tools in many areas of project-oriented activities, including investment, innovation, and information projects. Last years the implementation and functioning of the country’s enterprises’ project management system have been actively discussed in Kazakhstan.This work aims to identify critical processes of project management planning that affect the effectiveness of projects at the enterprise of the military-industrial complex of Kazakhstan. For this purpose, a survey of top managers of defense industry companies was conducted. A total of 28 respondents were interviewed, working at 18 enterprises of the military-industrial complex of the Republic of Kazakhstan and directly participating in the implementation of projects. Data were personally collected by a questionnaire survey conducted during 2019. To verify the formulated model’s assumptions and success, correlation analysis, and other relevant tests were used. Using the model of project management planning quality (PMPQ), process efficiency has been assessed, and critical factors for the effectiveness of defense industry projects have also been identified. The results show that the Republic of Kazakhstan’s defense industry complex projects has a low level of efficiency and an average score for the use of project planning processes. Project efficiency evaluation has also revealed critical knowledge areas for defense projects like human resource management, schedule development, and define scope. The research expands knowledge in PM, revealing the importance of planning processes for the defense industry that need more focus to achieve top-level success and effectiveness of projects. AcknowledgmentThis study is the second part of grant AP05134488 that has been funded by the Ministry of Education and Science of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

Deciding whether an investment should be made or not requires an evaluation of the investment’s effectiveness. The choice of evaluation methods is related to the basic objective conditioning the implementation of the investment project. It often happens that the conditions in which a specific investment has been formulated change and so does the basis for its implementation, and it is necessary to adapt it to the new conditions. These new conditions could be recognized during the exploitation of the project so it is hard to take them into consideration at the stage of planning. The paper aims to evaluate the investments in commercial real estate with the option of alternative way of usage. This evaluation was carried out using the classical (discounted) methods of economic efficiency of investments and real options. Two groups of pricing real options models were used in the study: binomial models and continuous-time models. Results based on varied valuation methods lead to different conclusions. Unlike the discount methods, the real option approach allows valuing the project flexibility (which cannot be valued by classical methods). This value of flexibility in certain conditions indicates what should be the path of development of the project related with the transformation of commercial real estate for other purposes.

The authors compare UNIDO methodology and traditional methodology of evaluating effectiveness of investment which was widely spread in the Soviet time. The latter has been undeservedly forgotten, but at the same time it is a pragmatic alternative for the UNIDO methodology. The article depicts the basic drawbacks of the UNIDO methodology. The main one is its inconsistency of interests of an economic entity to the growing production and cost savings. If an economic entity implements this methodology, it is likely to face great risks of various nature. The traditional approach makes calculations significantly simpler, increases their accuracy and reduces risks. The author points out the basic provisions of the classical methodology, such as evaluation of the efficiency of capital investments, basic indicators of economic effectiveness of investment, production tasks which require evaluation of economic effectiveness of investment. Use of the traditional approach makes it possible to significantly reduce the costs for preparing the feasibility study of an investment project. The author considers the criteria of effectiveness of the traditional methodology which are adapted to the modern practice. The main advantages of the classical methodology are its focus on economic result which corresponds to the trend on the economic growth and social results in realization of national projects. Classical methodology of evaluating the effectiveness of investment projects can become a competitive alternative of a widespread UNIDO methodology. The alternative can be of interest for the federal executive bodies (for example, for the Ministry for Economic Development of the Russian Federation) in evaluating effectiveness of the national investment projects.

Full textAbstract:
As part of the value-based approach to project management, a new economic metric was actually introduced - value as an indicator of the company's success. The basis of the value-based approach is the definition of indicators that reflect the growth of the company's value. Assessment of the value of projects and their expertise should be carried out in a certain sense in a uniform manner, based on common indicators. A study of the system of indicators for management and balanced assessment of the value of projects was carried out. Indicators are considered in the context of the development of existing project management systems. It is proposed to divide the existing system of indicators into three groups: methodological, methodological and operational. The hypothesis that the success of the project mission can be predicted based on the values of the indicators of a group of methodological indicators for assessing the values of the project is confirmed. Using modern mathematical methods, it is shown that in the group of methodological indicators for project evaluation, each of the indicators objectively reflects the value, and sometimes the effectiveness or success of the project, since each indicator is used as the main one for a certain type of project. The model developed by the authors can serve as a methodological basis for managing the value of projects. The proposed model makes it possible to assess the value of project activity in terms of its effectiveness based on only one, any indicator of a group of methodological indicators for assessing the value of the project. The model allows the use of value management tools at different stages of the project life cycle. In addition, the mechanisms presented in the work are universal and can be used in projects implemented using various approaches: both within the framework of classical project management and using “flexible” or hybrid methods. The article shows that the group of methodological indicators objectively reflects not only the success of the project. Considering any of the indicators, one can conclude about the effectiveness or success of the project mission or strategic goal.

Enterprises are confronted with several project alternatives that they assume to gain revenue in the future, but their own economical resources are limited to carry out all alternatives. Therefore, a decision process arises to prioritize and select among alternatives according to the predetermined goals and criteria to reach the maximum utilization. On the other hand, in project evaluation, the values of project parameters are often assumed to be known with complete certainty. However, project parameters normally change during a life cycle of the project, and it is necessary to consider uncertainty and risk phenomena while evaluating projects. Simulation-based project evaluation approaches enable to make more reliable investment decision since they permit to include future uncertainty and risk in analysis process. In this article, a novel simulation-based optimal decision approach is proposed for evaluating and comparing investment projects under uncertain and/or risky environments. The phases of the proposed approach are; (a) developing the effectiveness measure formulation of a project, (b) identifying and checking all controllable project parameters that affect the measure, (c) developing simulation model for the measure, and (d) performing the project ranking and selection procedures in order to rank and select the projects. Three ranking and selection procedures, previously used for comparing performances of the different production/service systems, are embedded in the proposed approach.

Abstract Environmental projects have a high degree of uncertainty and risk of their implementation. In the process of assessing their effectiveness, it is necessary to take into account the interests of all the participants in the environmental project. The environmental projects effectiveness evaluation is formalized in the form of a mathematical problem of nonlinear programming with Boolean variables with constraints such as equality and inequality. To solve it, the interactive genetic algorithm for the environmental projects implementation trajectory formation was developed.

The UK is preparing to start one of the largest random assignment evaluations of a new social policy that has ever been undertaken in Europe or North America. This juncture is a useful time to examine the merits of random assignment evaluation using new results from one-of the most widely cited experimental evaluations the Self-Sufficiency Project in Canada. Random assignment experiments are the most reliable approach to measure the impacts of changes in social policy. However, they are often expensive and cannot answer all relevant research questions. The Canadian Self-Sufficiency Project demonstrates these qualities. It showed that the provision of earnings supplements to lone parents who leave welfare for full-time work can increase employment and earnings and decrease welfare receipt. The high quality of research provides credible evidence that the large, initial programme expenditure can mostly be recovered through reduced welfare payments and higher taxes.

In this article we will consider the main problems we face in determining the effectiveness of attracting investment in innovation activities of the enterprise. Many researchers have long been developing better mechanisms for evaluating the effectiveness of investment activities. These include simulation techniques and a multi-step approach. As part of this study, we adapt these techniques for the process of evaluating the economic efficiency of innovation, taking into account the identified features. The methods of evaluating the effectiveness of innovation activity in relation to the investment aspect are proposed, the peculiarity of which is the fact that the amount of project money flows and the amount of investment costs, in particular working capital, needed for introducing the assets of an innovative project into for the production with the use of the newest technologies and innovations are taken into consideration. It is proved that the evaluation of the efficiency of investments in the innovation project predetermines processing of expert assessments applying special tools, which involves checking the conditions of consistency and consensus of experts’ ideas. The final stage of the expertise involves making a decision on selection of one or several innovation projects for implementation in the conditions of the enterprise under consideration. It is established that the basis of selection should be the rating of the innovation project, the cost of its implementation and the budget of the enterprise’s innovation development. The final decision on the appropriateness of introduction of the innovation project does not require rigid formalization, but should be taken by senior management board of the enterprise as a result of qualitative assessment of the efficiency of investment in innovation projects. Simulation modeling is proposed, which will allow to make a decision on the effectiveness of attracting investment in an innovative project.

Science and technology project evaluation is an important means of science and technology management. Whether the evaluation of science and technology projects is fair or not directly affects the development of national economy and the allocation of science and technology resources. Due to the complexity of the project and the fuzziness of human thinking, the expert information is often difficult to quantify in the process of project evaluation. Generally, the better choice is to express it in qualitative language. In this paper, the 2-tuple linguistic preference relation is proposed to evaluate scientific research projects. The reasonableness of the concept of complete consistency for the 2-tuple linguistic preference relation is discussed. Priority of 2-tuple linguistic preference relation is set up based on the 2-tuple weighted geometric averaging operator. Finally, combined with Science and technology project evaluation problem, the effectiveness and feasibility of the method are verified.

BackgroundUK Ambulance Services are under pressure to retain paramedics as diverse career options become increasingly available throughout the NHS for this valuable group of staff. Rotational working is one means of providing a varied clinical portfolio with the aim of sustaining an ambulance service based career over a longer work-span. Prior to implementing a test of an Advanced Paramedic Practitioner (APP) focussed three-part model of rotation which included Primary Care, Clinical Contact Centre and Solo Responding, an effective evaluation framework was required.MethodsThe aims of the project were refined during initial team planning and a project workshop which articulated the conditions for success. The theory of change was subsequently developed through a team-based facilitated session culminating in the development of a driver diagram. Due to the predominantly linear nature of the project and design, a Logic Model approach was selected to then map and construct the detailed evaluations required for each of the key areas identified.ResultsSeven individual elements for evaluation were identified through this design process. These comprised of four core areas including the impact of the rotation on Patients, Primary Care, The APPs and Welsh Ambulance Services NHS Trust which would be managed by the project team. In addition, the framework identified elements suitable for external evaluation which consisted of the economic evaluation, a deeper exploration of patient experiences and project effectiveness. External evaluation would test the validity of the overall approach to the project by the internal team and stakeholders. The derived Logic Models were designed to enable formative and summative evaluation throughout the opening phase of the rotation.ConclusionsUsing this approach, the project team have constructed a robust, but testable model of evaluation, with the flexibility to map changes as the evaluation yields specific learning points about the project.

Implementation of innovative projects at first stages is associated with risks determined by high uncertainty of cash flows. As such, the application of standard methods to analyze the project’s economic efficiency does not allow us to give reliable estimates of the forecast dynamics of economic indicators. All this requires the development of special techniques for the analysis of the effectiveness of innovation spending. The use of real options as well as fuzzy sets approach seems to be a basic conceptual focus for the further improvement of these methods. The paper contains the results of the effectiveness estimation for an innovative project aimed at establishing motor fuel production from high energy biomass with the use of option and fuzzy sets analysis. The use of the proposed fuzzy sets methods makes it possible to complement the traditional financial analysis and quantitatively estimates sustainability of different indicators of the innovative project efficiency to a change in exogenous parameters. Besides, it could be rather useful to identify the project’s bottlenecks. Moreover, the application of this method allows to quantitatively estimate reliability of the calculated project effectiveness indicators. Hardly can such estimations be made by means of traditional methods of financial analysis; either low or high reliability of the obtained effectiveness indicators could serve as an additional argument in favor of negative or positive decision on the project finance, allowing a venture capital fund to allocate the resources among the analyzed innovative projects more efficiently. On the whole, the use of the real options combined with the fuzzy sets method is sure to expand venture capital tools used for financial justification of submitted projects.

This paper is based on the efficacy of monitoring and evaluation systems in the performance of government sponsored projects. A project is a temporary endeavor undertaken to create a unique product, service or result. Monitoring and evaluation is a key component in project management. The value for monitoring and evaluation is to promote and enhancing successful performance of government sponsored programs. The basic goal of monitoring and evaluation is to periodically track implementation, efficiency and project effectiveness increasing the value and interest to beneficiaries. Monitoring and evaluation system is designed within the organization, which includes indicators, methods, and procedures that can be used to determine whether a project was carried out according to plan and achieved the desired results. Projects have to be completed as expected and to the stakeholders satisfaction and eventually be sustainable. The importance of monitoring and evaluation is to enhance the successful delivery of the projects. This paper was focused on issues dealing with the role of M&E System in the Performance and Management of government Sponsored Projects Relevance of M&E Systems Performance of Projects and Stakeholder Participation in Projects and barriers to the Implementation of Project Monitoring and Evaluation system. The study recommendations include that governmental or non-governmental organization and institutions need to step in advancing the capacities of monitoring and evaluation to check the direction that projects take. Project managers should therefore work hard for change attitudes and perception on the value of M&E for their personnel and finally organizations should start by improving their capacities (personnel, tools, knowledge and skills).

The analysis of the ratio of the potentials of the enterprise, its organizational elements and the project being implemented at the enterprise is given. Based on the analysis, it was concluded that knowledge of the potentials makes it possible to assess the effectiveness of the project activities carried out. From a sociophysical point of view, a project model is a set of accumulated potentials of state variables. On the example of two indicators — the revenue and the balance of the enterprise, where the project is being implemented, the sociophysical formulation of the task of analyzing the effectiveness of the investment project is illustrated. Calculations are given of the accumulated potentials of organizational units involved in the implementation of the project are presented; the definition of the accumulated potential reduction factor is given; an economic interpretation of the results of evaluating the effectiveness of project activities.

The relevance of the study is due to the active implementation of IT technologies in various aspects of companies, which gives special importance to the development of a methodology for assessing the effectiveness of projects in a highly uncertain environment. The paper presents the methodology and assesses the effectiveness of IT projects using binomial «decision tree» model and iterative risk assessment metamodel «Lean Canvas». The comparative assessment of IT project efficiency using discounted cash flow method, binomial «decision tree» model and Black–Scholes model was carried out. The results have shown the advantage of option-based approach to the evaluation of IT project efficiency in comparison with the traditional DCF method, which allows to build flexibility in the planning and management of the project, assess its potential and consider the uncertainties as additional opportunities for profit.

With the utility deregulation and market operation in China, economic factor is becoming more and more important to the evaluation and decision making of power system projects. As an important characteristic of the electric market, uncertainty is an indispensable part of project evaluation and decision making. Considering that the traditional decision making theories fail to solve the uncertainty problem entirely, this paper applies the interval theory to evaluate and make decision on projects. The interval net present value (INPV) theory is used to conduct economic evaluation, and an interval analytic hierarchy process (IAHP) and interval binary programming based method is proposed to perform project decision-making. Case study has proved the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Investment decisions are at the core of any development strategy. Economic growth and welfare depend on productive capital, infrastructure, human capital, knowledge, total factor productivity and the quality of institutions. Decision-making process on the selection of suitable projects in the public sector is in some aspects more difficult than in the private sector. Evaluating projects on the basis of their financial profitability, where the basic parameter is the value of the potential profit, can be misleading in these cases. One of the basic objectives of the allocation of public resources is respecting of the 3E principle (Economy, Effectiveness, Efficiency) in their whole life cycle. The life cycle of the investment projects consists of four main phases. The first pre-investment phase is very important for decision-making process whether to accept or reject a public project for its realization. A well-designed feasibility study as well as cost-benefit analysis (CBA) in this phase are important assumptions for future success of the project. A future financial and economical CF which represent the fundamental basis for calculation of economic effectiveness indicators are formed and modelled in these documents. This paper deals with the possibility to calculate the financial and economic efficiency of the public investment projects more accurately by simulation methods used.

The methods of evaluating the effectiveness of innovation activity in relation to the investment aspect are proposed, the peculiarity of which is the fact that the amount of project money flows and the amount of investment costs, in particular working capital, needed for introducing the assets of an innovative project into industrial exploitation for the production of promising types of products with the use of the newest technologies and innovations are taken into consideration. It is proved that the main limiting factor of innovation activity of enterprises is a high level of risk accompanying innovation projects. The risk of an innovation project is defined as the possibility of implementation of unfavorable scenarios or consequences that can lead to the situation, when its participants’ goals won’t be achieved (in other words, the project will prove to be ineffective). In the article the application of the method of cognitive modelling for the estimation of risks is suggested. The application of this approach is possible, since it is established that the system of innovation risks is weakly structured. The process of cognitive modelling risks of the innovation project is presented in the thesis as two alternating stages: conceptual (formation of the model as factors (carriers) of the innovation risks and cause-and-consequence relationships between them) and mathematic (calculation of system indicators of the cognitive card: the consonance of impact and interaction between concepts, as well as the consonance of influence and interaction of concepts with the system). It is established that application of the cognitive modelling technology can be considered as one of possible variants of development of methodical tools for risk of innovative projects assessment in the conditions of limited time and the need to take into account the complex system of interconnections of quite a large number of heterogeneous risk factors. The results obtained can be the basis for developing an adequate anti-risk mechanism for managing the effectiveness of innovation projects. The evaluation and realization of selection of the innovation projects during the expertise at the enterprise level is grounded with their division into two classes: local, which are offered to be assessed according to their effectiveness for the enterprise, and socially significant, which have to undergo the procedure the expertise taking into account of the priorities of the development of the system of higher order. It was determined that the evaluation of the innovation project covers two main areas: preliminary expert evaluation of the project in terms of its relevance to the goals and resources of the enterprise; detailed assessment of the efficiency of investments in the innovation project.
