The subject of the research is the approaches to studying the dynamics of information and energy entropy of a project-oriented organization. The purpose of this study is to develop an approach for monitoring the dynamics of energy entropy when adding a new project to the portfolio of a project-oriented organization. To achieve this goal, it is necessary to perform the following tasks: determine the expression of the criterion for the success of the project in the framework of the energy-entropic concept of the organization, formulate entropic barriers and ways to overcome them. The following methods are used: systems analysis, probability theory, energy-entropy theory. Results. The main parameters that determine the dynamics of the organization's energy entropy are information entropy and relative energy efficiency. When a new project is added to an organization's structure, it takes time to improve its energy efficiency. Therefore, to form conclusions on the analysis of changes in entropy, it is important to review the period and take into account its relationship with new projects of the organization. The dynamics of the information entropy of development projects and their influence on the information entropy of the organization are described. It was found that negative leaps of information entropy are possible as a result of the implementation of projects aimed at changing business processes, quality of resources, etc. The work proposes a criterion for the success of the project, taking into account the time period that is "provided" to the project for the manifestation of its result in terms of energy entropy. Also, the work formulated barriers for information and energy entropies as levels, upon reaching which the organization is destroyed. Conclusions. This article presents a tool for analyzing the dynamics of information entropy and energy entropy of a project-oriented organization when a new project is added to the portfolio. Also, a criterion for the success of the project is proposed, taking into account the time period that is "provided" to the project for the manifestation of its result in terms of energy entropy. Entropic barriers of a project-oriented organization are formulated and ways to overcome them are proposed to reduce entropy, increase energy efficiency and ensure its development.
