The main aim of the paper is to investigate and discuss the influence of digital transformation (DT) on the processes, tools, and outcomes of project management. It seems to be accepted that not only has the digital economy a great impact on the technologies used, but it affects the transition of strategies, business models, structures, or competences. The objective of the research demonstrated in this paper was to identify the main dimensions and scope of the impact of DT on the area of project management. The conclusions as to the multidimensionality of this impact were drawn on the basis of empirical investigations conducted on a sample of around a hundred of project managers and on the analyses of their perception of the most important aspects of DT. The crucial themes, as well as the advantages and barriers of DT, were discussed briefly.
