The Orthogonality – Quality Specific Feature of the Regional Projects

Abstract. The regional development is a new tackling way of the economic and social processes in the actual period. The practice showed that the durable evolution is characteristic of some organizational structures in which  the management  has a high level degree of  the efficiency. To have access to the dedicated funds to some specific  and major objectives  of the durable development of the regions, it elaborates projects that must be grounded scientifically and they must observe the fundamental proportions of the progress from the financial viewpoint. 
The specific nature of each region requires the tackling specific features of the resources and staging specific features of the activities. All these establish the individualization of the project offers.
This paper defines the project orthogonality concept. The orthogonality is a quality characteristic showing the presence or the absence of the clones which praise redundancy in the regional development projects which were proposed. Testing ways of the projects that include the orthogonality characteristic are established. It was proposed indicators to set the measure of the project orthogonality and to validate the measures of these indicators. Identification methods of the clones in the projects proposed are also established.
To illustrate all these concepts it uses the software product OrtoPro that established the acceptance or rejection the projects from the viewpoint of this quality characteristic.
The structure of this paper is:
1.	Project Structures;
2.	Structured Text Orthogonality;
3.	Indicators of the Project Orthogonality;
4.	Orthogonality Software;
5.	Conclusions;
