The article identifies the features of innovative projects that should be taken into account when building models of information processes in decision support systems (DSS) for project management. It is shown that, in terms of taking into account these features, methods for forming knowledge in the form of ontologies and the use of information analysis procedures based on precedent methods seem to be promising. The limitations of existing precedent methods, including those involving the formation of a knowledge base in the form of ontologies for their use in project management, are revealed. Development trends in methods for representing knowledge in the form of ontologies and their use within the framework of precedent approaches are substantiated. The trends are as follows: providing the ability to use several independent ontologies for different subject areas; taking into account the differences of the analyzed projects and creating conditions for the adaptation of ontologies when the indicators of the external and internal environments of the project change. A DSS structure for project management is proposed, which provides the use of several subject and functional ontologies and a developed fuzzy logic algorithm for adapting earlier rational decisions to the current situation. Software tools implementing the proposed models and procedures are described, as well as the results of their application to decision support in managing a project to develop an innovative asynchronous electric motor. It is shown that the proposed approach allows the description of the current situation in a linguistic form. At the same time, in contrast to the known variants of precedent methods based on the use of ontological models, the described algorithm for deriving solutions allows taking into account the characteristics of the analyzed situations related to various subject and functional areas. This allows you to develop recommendations for the allocation of resources for the implementation of design work based on the analysis of positive experience in the implementation of projects of various sizes.
