“…Infrastructure programs should not only be aimed at building (development) of a complex or large-scale system, they should take into account the development of concepts, changes in organizational structures and teams of managers [9]. In an infrastructure program designed to develop a new type of product (service), the use of new technologies [10,11] and the concept of overall success management are crucial. Strategic management of the infrastructure program identifies elements of strategy that are critical to achieving the mission of the program, and creates a program structure for combining key elements [12,13].…”

The subject of this article is the development of hybrid methodologies for managing projects, programs and project portfolios. Significant reductions in the life cycles of infrastructure programs, which contain projects of different lines of activity and different management methodologies, for example, waterfalls with a rigid life cycle and Agile with a flexible methodology life cycle, require the use of convergence tools to form "hybrid" methodologies. The goal is to develop a convergent approach to building hybrid project management methodologies in terms of decision-making processes in project management based on various platforms. Results of the studies were obtained using a convergent approach to building methodologies for managing infrastructure projects and programs. A substantial model of the resulting hybrid methodology for managing infrastructure projects and programs is presented. Conclusions: Hybrid methodologies for managing infrastructure projects and programs are becoming more popular in this category of programs. The main reason is the presence in the program of components with different life cycles, and, consequently, methodologies that require integration and harmonization. The methodology is tested by the practice of using mechanisms of hybrid multilevel management of infrastructure projects and programs. The study of hybrid infrastructural program management methodologies is defined by the practice of introducing different components of programs. The application of the hybrid project management methodology allowed the authors to execute different projects in essence within the stipulated timeframe with the given budget and quality of construction projects and projects of creation of information and communication infrastructure management systems. Further areas of research are related to the elaboration of harmonization, integration, convergence and actualization mechanisms.

“…The main application of entropy in the context of project management of the "infodemic-pandemic" systems was based on informational entropy [11,12], which acts as a measure of uncertainty. Nevertheless, the possibility of using the category "entropy" is much wider.…”

“…The concept of the project community or its intellectual space emerged in the course of the global development of management science [12]. The project community includes members of the project team and other stakeholders, organically shapes the value of the project mission and participates in the implementation of the project, using the combined competence of all members of the community.…”

In this paper, the action-entropy concept is applied to the modeling of the "infodemic-pandemic" systems. From the actionentropy concept, the specificity of the "infodemic-pandemic" systems is that each project forms a certain contribution to the formation and dynamics of action entropy. According to this concept, "infodemicpandemic" is considered as a system that exchanges biological resources, action and information with the environment, which determines the presence of informational (structural) entropy and action entropy. Moreover, the latter is the result of the existing order in the organization, which is determined by the structure and implementation of business processes. The action-entropy concept operates with such categories as "action", "entropy", "free action", "dissipation" and allows using action-entropy to assess the state and dynamics of the "infodemic-pandemic" systems. This study presents the universal formalization of action entropy for various organizations and its expression for project-oriented organizations. The action entropy of organizations is determined by information entropy, total action and the ratio of the achieved level of action efficiency to the "ideal" level. The relationship between action entropy and informational (structural) entropy of project-oriented organizations is established. It is determined that when adding a new project to the current totality, the organization must ensure a balance between the growth of uncertainty (information entropy) and action efficiency. The method of "decomposition" of the total action entropy of the "infodemic-pandemic" systems is presented in the form of the sum of local action entropies for projects and programs. The effect of adding a new project to the structure of the "infodemic-pandemic" systems on its integrated action entropy is investigated. The presented results form a new look at the qualitative assessment of both an individual project and the entire set of projects of the "infodemic-pandemic" systems.

“…The role of project manager is thus evolving from the administration of the project towards strategic activities such as establishing clear and achievable objectives, balancing the competing demands and adjusting plans and approaches to the different concerns and expectations of the various stakeholders, managing complex adaptive systems, as well as facilitating high performance and training, coaching, motivating and developing teams to create value for their organisations (Ahsan et al 2013;Nimmo and Usher 2020;Cabecas and Silva 2021). Consequently, the growing dynamics of the business environment requires an increasing level of competency of project managers, including formal education, qualifications, practical experience and multidisciplinary orientation (Bredin and Söderlund 2013;Alvarenga et al 2019;Edum-Fotwe and McCaffer 2000) to understand diverse aspects of the project environment and ensure project delivery through coordination of work of a large set of people, while coping with challenges this way of work brings (Wong 2007;Ulrich et al 2008;Anantatmula and Rad 2018;Verenych and Bushuyev 2018;Bukvić et al 2020;Akhwaba 2021). Although approaches to defining the concept of competency significantly vary, it can be more narrowly understood as a combination of knowledge (information and experience), skills (technical capabilities to perform a task) and abilities (effective delivery of knowledge and skills within a certain context) -called the KSA model -used to improve performance (Rodriguez et al 2002;Crawford 2005;Hayton and Kelley 2006;Ulrich et al 2008;IPMA 2015;Lizunkov et al 2015;Struková and Bašková 2017;Sołtysik et al 2020).…”

An increasing number of organisations are basing their operations on temporary forms of work such as projects to cope with the needs of the modern business environment, which consequently leads to a significant growth in the demand for competent individuals who can not only adequately manage projects, but also seize the opportunities that this new way of doing business brings in the creation of strategic value for organisations. To be considered competent in the field, individuals should therefore demonstrate a certain level of knowledge, skills and abilities that are assessed, developed or improved through certification systems. Although professional certification was previously driven exclusively by the aspirations of individuals for improvement in a business context, to ensure a more professional project practice, the conditions for performing this type of work are starting to be more formalised at the level of employers (requirements in job advertisements) or the state (regulation of certification bodies or legally prescribed requirements for project positions). With the aim of examining the attitude of project professionals towards the competency-based certification in the field of project management and its legal regulations, as well as its role in ensuring the sustainable project delivery, quantitative empirical research was conducted among 246 certified project, programme and portfolio managers in Croatia. The obtained results not only indicate the importance of certification in project delivery and continuous professional development of individuals, but also emphasise insufficient recognition of certification within organisations, its connection with career progress and compliance of practices at the state level.
