Investments can be managed as portfolios with the objective to reduce the risks, increase the returns and ensure greater effectiveness of investments. Some companies sought to manage their investments using the projects approach, creating thus the Project Portfolio Management (PPM). In addition to the technical or methodological issues, other factors are present in this process such as the professional's knowledge and involvement, integration with other processes in the organization, political issues, management model adopted, organizational culture, etc. Authors discuss the influence of these organizational factors in PPM, however they do so in a timely manner and fragmented. This article is aimed at investigating from the literature which is the organizational factors that influence the PPM. It is proposed a structure that combines and consolidates the factors found, which will allow companies to identify and understand which organizational factors influence the PPM and thus to prepare themselves for more adequately for the deployment of this process.
