Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The importance of project management (PM) for humanity can be evidenced, for example, in the development of various types of infrastructure, which, due to their scale, have required skills in terms of cost management, materials, personnel, among others. This has led to the implementation of specific techniques that support and serve as a means to achieve tangible objectives. In this sense, it is to be expected that project management has a positive impact on the financial outcomes of companies. This research aims to "identify the financial impact of project development on companies according to the existing literature" through the implementation of a systematic review, based on documents indexed in the Scopus database. The results identified a positive impact in that project management contributes favorably to a company's financial performance; however, some studies identified a negative impact, reporting an adverse relationship between project management and financial outcomes. Future research lines are proposed to delve into the strategic use of projects as a business management tool.
