Project management is a very important factor for success or failure, about 12% of projects in the industry were destined to fail according to studies by the Project Management Institute. Therefore, it is relevant to know the scientific/technological evolution about the use of good practices, models and trends in project management that lead to a successful implementation result to identify relevant findings that allow improving specific work approaches. This article presents a systematic literature review that analyzes 98 articles in English language within the period from 2011 to 2021 from three main databases of high relevance (Scopus, Taylor & Francis and SpringerLink), where a taxonomy involves the type of article, the origin, the validation methods, business unit, the level of implementation of the proposals and the degree of new approaches for reference frameworks is analyzed.

The results and findings of this article will allow to detect areas of opportunity that contribute to indicators of scientific production at the academic level and allows for future approaches to be made in the manufacturing industry of the bajio area in Mexico, adapting frameworks models according to their requirements.

As a part of the literature review, it is possible to answer the research question, what is the progress of academic research in relation to the development and use of frameworks for the development of new projects?
