The evaluation of research and development (R&D) project proposals plays a critical role in shaping national scientific and technological priorities. However, existing expert review systems are often characterized by fragmented digital workflows, limited traceability of decisions, and a strong reliance on manual coordination, which reduces transparency and auditability. This paper proposes a conceptual and methodological framework for a national research project evaluation system that integrates artificial intelligence and blockchain technologies as complementary decision-support and data integrity mechanisms. The framework formalizes the complete evaluation lifecycle, including applicant authorization, formal compliance verification, originality and plagiarism analysis, expert selection and assessment, analytical consolidation of reviews, and fixation of final decisions. Artificial intelligence modules are introduced to support thematic classification, compliance checking, expert matching, and analytical processing of expert evaluations, while blockchain technology is incorporated as an immutable integrity layer for recording critical evaluation events and ensuring data provenance. The proposed approach focuses on architectural design, governance principles, and process modeling rather than system implementation or empirical validation. The framework is intended to serve as a reference model for the design and future development of transparent, accountable, and scalable research project evaluation platforms at national and institutional levels.
