The relevance of this study is due to the need to implement the task of digital transformation of Ukraine by solving the problem of modernization of public administration on the basis of constant increase of project maturity of the organizations.The study proved the existence of a direct dependence of prospects for the implementation of digital transformation projects on the level of project maturity of public management. A variant of the project maturity model adapted to the local self-government body is being developed. The model assumes three levels of maturity of local governments. It has established that the majority of the created united territorial communities of Ukraine were characterized by the first two levels of maturity. The implementation of the maturity model makes it possible to assess the current state of the system, choose adequate tools for staff training, create conditions for continuous improvement and realization of the potential of the local community for the implementation of digital transformation projects.
