The alignment of the project management methodologies, tools and techniques with company's strategy is one of highest priorities for top managers and their decisions. The survey and the analysis of the results create a basis for an insight into the conditions that are present in our practice, concerning application of the project management methodologies, especially using ICT in conducting their businesses in a sensitive economic environment, as it is in developing countries. The results of the study may help companies for appropriate business strategy development in the new business and market environment.
