The aim of this article is to indicate the need for a deepening, systematizing and codifying of the theoretical and practical knowledge on IT project management, in the area of management decision-making processes. The scope of decisions made by managers is constantly on the increase. Project managers make decisions not only within the classic triangle of constraints, which consists of a schedule, a budget and the project scope, but also in reference to a number of other problems which occur during project execution. The observed need to identify and define all the factors which are present in projects results in the identification of a finite set of variables for decision-making and for the decisions themselves and, finally, in determining their mutual correlation.
