Abstract

Importance and useful of primary pivots prioritization is grounded. It is shown that the selection of pivots is part of the experiment to confirm or disprove the primary hypotheses about the effect of the selected parameters on the development of the project. An analytical review of the methods for primary hypotheses formulating is carried out. The disadvantages of some methods of pivots prioritizing are analyzed. The necessity of separate preparation of hypotheses having qualitative and quantitative estimations of stakeholders is considered. A model-scheme of distinguish primary pivots on a set of static and dynamic ones is developed. Possibility to change the method of prioritizing pivots in next phases of the life cycle of a startup is accented.
