The competency-based approach to project management in world practice and theory has long been universally recognised. The most famous models in this area are the models of the Project Management Institute (PMI) PMCDF 3.0 and the International Project Management Association (IPMA) ICB 4.0.After a deeper acquaintance with the elements of each of the presented models, there is a desire to combine them completely, which suggests that the «integrated competency model» in this case most likely guaranteed the holder of such competencies the ability to comply with ISO 21500.On the other hand, now they are increasingly talking about the need for the so-called «T-shaped professionals». This approach was used by both PMI and IPMA to differentiate their standards, but in the context of differences in requirements in the logic of «portfolio-program-project». This approach also was present in the logic of the IPMA certification model in terms of the scale of the project (-s) managed by the applicant, which subsequently switched to the logic of programs and project portfolios.The research will contribute to the further development of standards, in relation to: definition of criteria for referring to the «digital» competencies of the project manager; building a model of «digital» competencies of the project manager; determine the approach to assessing the «digital» competencies of the project manager; understand of ways to integrate the model of "digital" competencies and the functionality of the project management information system.
