description Construction is essential for the progress of modern societies, especially in developing countries, with considerable housing and infrastructure deficit. For this reason, the State intervenes in constructive activities, through government policies focused on stimulating the economy. Likewise, public investment resources are channeled to these types of projects, which are inherently complex and managed by the business or private sector. However, due to dependence on public sector, changes in world markets, their volatility and uncertainty, Colombian economy is susceptible to changes in the market, due to economic openness policies. This gene-rates a pattern of low performance and a negative effect on the productive sector, which converges in the performance of the business activity. In addition to the above, the efforts in the approach and control of traditional problems, focused on including organizational management, methodologies and project development. This are not updated and formulated to get better business practices, which has prevented the identification of factors related to permanence. In view of the manifest need, the present research evaluated the organizational context in construction, its characteristics and capabilities, through the formulation of methodologies, supported by standardized methods and multivariate numerical analysis, which established the business traits and perceptions on project management. With the analysis of internal consistency and reliability, the factors of business permanence were consolidated around organizational structures, tools, managerial capabilities, maturity, restrictions and their correlation with business size, legal status and economic subactivity. These are accompanied by contextual criteria of the organizational environment, from the knowledge and use of project management; which allowed the formulation of factors constituted by structures, practices and tools in processes that influence success and business permanence, by identifying characteristics that synthesize and reference the possible adoption of skills in management processes within the economic context of construction

Por lo anterior, el Estado interviene en la labor constructiva, mediante políticas gubernamentales enfocadas en dinamizar la economía. Asimismo, se canalizan recursos públicos de inversión para este tipo de proyectos, inherentemente complejos, gerenciados por el parque empresarial o privado. Sin embargo, debido a la dependencia del sector público, los cambios en los mercados mundiales, su volatilidad e incertidumbre, la economía colombiana es susceptible a cambios en el mercado, debido a las políticas de apertura económica. Lo cual genera un patrón de bajo rendimiento y efecto negativo en el sector productivo, que converge en el desempeño de la actividad empresarial. A lo anterior, se adicionan los esfuerzos en el abordaje y control de problemáticas tradicionales, centradas en incluir prácticas gerenciales para el manejo de recursos, metodologías y desarrollo de proyectos, ya que, no se realimenta y formulan mejores prácticas organizacionales, lo que ha impedido identificar factores relacionados con la permanencia empresarial. Ante la necesidad manifiesta, aquí se evalua el contexto organizacional en la construcción, sus características y capacidades, mediante la formulación de una metodología soportada en métodos estandarizados y análisis numérico multivariado, los cuales establecieron los rasgos y percepciones empresariales sobre la gerencia de proyectos. Con el análisis de consistencia interna y confiabilidad, se consolidaron los factores de permanencia empresarial, alrededor de las estructuras organizacionales, herramientas, capacidades del gerente, madurez, restricciones y su correlación con el tamaño empresarial, personería jurídica y subactividad económica. Estos son acompañados por criterios contextuales del entorno organizacional, a partir del conocimiento y uso de la gerencia de proyectos; lo que permitió la formulación de factores constituidos por las estructuras, prácticas, herramientas en procesos que influyen en el éxito y la permanencia empresarial, al identificar características que sintetizan y referencian la posible adopción de habilidades en procesos gerenciales dentro del contexto económico de la construcción.
