Based on the use of this method, calculations were made, which made it possible to draw conclusions on the management of innovative activity at small enterprises in the Lviv region.

It is revealed that out of twenty-eight innovatively active small enterprises of the Lviv region only the Public JSC "Galichfarm", "San Garden" Subsidiaries, Agrotorg Trade and Manufacturing Company, LLC and Agropobutiailice Limited but low reliability. In particular, Additional Liability Company "Spring-West", "Domain-Printing" LLC and others are characterized by average sales volume of innovative products. It is determined that the following enterprises: "Safe Glass Factors" LLC, "Kormotech" LLC, "Snezhka-Ukraine" LLC and others have low sales of innovative products, low degree of reliability of predictions due to stochastic activity.
