Gerenciamento de projeto: Uma revisão bibliométrica sobre a evolução das abordagens ágeis

Abstract

Agile approaches have emerged as a more flexible and dynamic alternative to traditional Project Management approaches. By prioritizing rapid deliveries, collaboration between teams, and constant adaptation, these approaches have been gaining ground in sectors that require continuous innovation. In Brazil, although scientific production on the subject is growing, there is still a predominance of publications that address traditional practices. In this context, this work had the general objective of conducting a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) with bibliometric analysis to analyze the scientific production on Project Management and the specific objective of identifying the evolution of specific research on the agile approach, based on articles published in SEMEAD between 1998 and 2023. The search considered titles with the words “project”, “projects”, “agile” or “agile”, which resulted in 244 articles. After screening and categorization, 140 articles were considered within the scope. Of these, 15 dealt specifically with agile approaches. The data shows that, despite a smaller presence, interest in agile approaches has grown, especially in the last three years, with a peak in 2023. This movement signals a change in the academic view on how projects are conducted — and points to promising paths for new research.
