The criteria include metrics that have the greatest correlation with the efficiency of agile project management, namely, customer satisfaction, product development speed, the quality of the iteration results (project), align the budget with actual costs, and scope of delivered value. The criteria and their levels of interrelation are proposed to be used in the development a method for assessing the agile project management effectiveness
