Financial Resilience of it Entities in the Context of Project - Oriented Business Models

Abstract

The research addresses the issue of financial resilience of IT entities in the context of project-oriented business models, aiming to identify the main research directions, dominant concepts, and the relationships between digital transformation, organizational flexibility, and the financial sustainability of companies operating in the information technology sector. The relevance of the topic stems from the increasing economic and technological uncertainties, the dependence of IT companies on intellectual capital and intangible assets, as well as the volatility of revenues generated by project-based activities. The research methodology is based on a bibliometric and conceptual analysis of the international scientific literature indexed in Web of Science. The study selection process was conducted according to the PRISMA methodological framework adapted to bibliometric analysis, using the Biblioshiny tool from the Bibliometrix package. The application of the search query and thematic filters related to the fields of “Management”, “Business”, “Business Finance”, and “Economics” enabled the identification of a final bibliometric corpus of 26 scientific papers, of which 14 studies with high conceptual relevance were selected for in-depth analysis. The findings reveal that the international literature predominantly approaches the resilience of IT companies through the perspectives of digital transformation, dynamic capabilities, organizational flexibility, and agile business models. At the same time, the conceptual and thematic analysis identified significant gaps regarding the integration of the financial dimension into studies dedicated to project-oriented companies. This study provides an integrated perspective on the financial resilience of IT entities by correlating organizational, technological, and financial dimensions within a unified conceptual framework.
