The article focuses on automating the management of key performance indicators (KPIs) through the use of artificial intelligence (AI) and predictive analytics. The advantages of AI-driven KPI monitoring include improved forecast accuracy through big data analysis, proactive risk detection and management, and automation of routine project management tasks. The objective of the article is to explore methods and approaches for leveraging AI and predictive analytics to automate KPI management in project environments. The study analyzes existing tools, such as Power BI, Azure Machine Learning, and Google Cloud AI, assessing their effectiveness in predicting metrics like Lead Time, Cycle Time, and Budget Variance. The research employs methods of time series analysis, regression models, and neural networks, alongside practical application scenarios to optimize managerial decision-making. Scientific novelty lies in the development of a systematic approach for integrating predictive analytics into project management processes. The article categorizes metrics for Agile, Scrum, DevOps, and scaled frameworks (SAFe, LeSS) and demonstrates the advantages of AI-based KPI tracking. Practical significance includes the potential application of proposed approaches by project managers to implement AI solutions that enhance team productivity, optimize resources, and mitigate risks. Recommendations for integrating AI into project management systems enable proactive decision-making. Conclusions. The study provides an analysis of predictive analytics methods, describing models and tools for automating KPI monitoring. A systematic approach is proposed for integrating AI solutions into project management processes, enhancing management efficiency and ensuring process transparency. Future perspectives for using AI in KPI monitoring within scaled frameworks are also discussed.
