Agile project management with Scrum: A systematic literature review on organizational adop-tion, benefits, and implementation challenges

This study aims to analyze how the application of Scrum improves project development in companies and positively impacts the organizational environment. The research was conducted through a review of scientific articles published between 2013 and 2024, allowing the identification of the main motivators, challenges, and benefits of the agile methodology in organizations. The results show that Scrum improves internal communication, increases delivery efficiency, and enhances the quality of products and processes, delivering value to stakeholders. Furthermore, the analysis revealed that implementing the methodology depends on factors such as organizational culture, team training, and the team's understanding of agility. As a limitation, the study identified temporal variation in the articles: their distribution over the years was not homogeneous, and there was no in-depth quantitative evaluation to accurately measure the impacts of applying Scrum. Based on these conclusions, it is suggested that future research explores the integration of Scrum with other agile methodologies, conduct a comparative analysis with traditional methods, examine its application in specific sectors, and assess its impact on organizational culture.
