The role and importance of information and communication technologies (ICT) in city management are analyzed. It is substantiated that the digital component of municipal management is an important element of a sustainable city and ensures the expansion of citizens’ access to basic services. Modeling the assessment of the electronic maturity of the management office of municipal digitalization projects is considered through the prism of the technological maturity model of I. Kendall and K. Rollins. A matrix for assessing the electronic maturity of municipal e-projects, represented by project management knowledge areas and digital ICT characteristics of electronic maturity, has been developed. The results of digital maturity modeling are discussed on the example of the Municipal e-Project Management Office (PMOеМ). Eight levels of PMOеМ maturity are proposed: «I – PMOеМ is able to effectively implement information service projects»; «II – PMOеМ analyzes the organizational aspects of the online services of the municipality»; «III – PMOеМ develops ways to effectively implement online services»; «IV – PMOеМ requires a high level of e-government maturity, opening «fast access» of citizens to e-services»; «V – municipality staff as members of the project team (PMOеМ) ensures the progress of functional efficiency of city smart services»; «VI – PMOеМ is able to provide the vast majority of municipal services using ICT tools»; «VII – PMOеМ provides an expanded range of smart services»; «VIII – all municipal services are provided under the maximum mainstreaming of ICT». The proposed assessment tool will allow the PMOеМ directorate and the top management of IT organizations to conduct a self-assessment of progress in the digital management of municipal e-projects, e-programs and select the actions necessary to move to a higher level of e-maturity.

“…Considering internal resources, human resources [16,24], funds [25], and support of high-level manager [26] are suitable factors that have been used to select new PDP. Regarding external competitors, game theory [27] and SWOT analysis [28] are popular tools that have been applied to evaluate the performance between research enterprise and its competitors. It is therefore important to select PDPs based on internal resources and external competitors because enterprises should develop new products as fast as possible when products can be imitated easily.…”

The high-tech consumer goods market is a rapidly changing environment. Project evaluation and selection play important roles in an organization to increase its competitive advantages successfully. When handling new product project decision problems, it is important to collect information to make the right decision at the initial stage of product development. Past research found that managers usually only evaluate product development projects (PDP) based on a company's own resources. However, competitors can generate similar products to compete in the market. In this way, the process of PDP evaluation and selection should consider internal and external factors. In other words, it is a multiple-criteria decision-making (MCDM) problem. In addition, uncertainty and complex project evaluations are usually involved in dealing with MCDM problems. Therefore, we propose a new MCDM method by combining linguistic variables with intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (IFNs) to analyze the performance of PDPs. The proposed method is then implemented to evaluate a new kind of smartphone in order to fit with 5th generation mobile networks (5G). Finally, the conclusions and future research direction are discussed.

“…The environmental scan, strategy creation, execution of strategies, assessment, and control are the structure's four divisions. According to Arabzad and Shirouyehzad (2012), the method of strategic management can be applied with a variety of ways and strategies to assess the strategic concerns. SWOT analysis constitutes one of these approaches, and firms use it to carry out their strategic goals and uncover all the variables that go into decision-making.…”

The purpose of the study is to investigate how strategic orientation (SO) influences how well SME performance within Jordan is affected by strategic management (SM). To accomplish this research goal, a quantitative, cross-sectional methodology was chosen, and data among SME/Owner/Managers were collected once using a modified questionnaire. 156 responses were received and usable. The data was analyze via SmartPLS (PLS 4). The results of this study showed that an organization's strategic orientation affects its strategic management, which boosts performance, whereas a company's strategic orientation appears to be directly tied to its capacity for innovation and learning. The study made the recommendation that future studies emphasize strategic management being multi-dimensional (i.e., to examine the relationship among company performance and SM instruments).
