This article examines the relationship between agile technology and the classical management cycle in the methodology of the system-activity approach in modern socio-economic conditions. If you study the description of the Agile methodology in various sources and publications, you can see the general requirements for the organization of work during the project implementation process, but there is a lack of a rigid technological form of management according to this methodology. In the absence of such information, it is difficult to be sure that there are no «gaps», and the probability of defects is high if it is not possible to accurately identify the person responsible for the area where the defect occurred. In order to solve this problem, this article attempts to compare Agile methodology with the classical technological cycle of management activities. The paper shows that project management using the method of correlating Agile project management technology with the technological cycle of management activities will make project management organized, on the one hand, and ensure optimal tracking of «nuances» and «details», using the advantages of classical project management and Agile technology, while maximizing their weaknesses. the parties. Agile does not replace the technological management cycle, but complements it where flexibility is needed.
