One of the construction sectors in Colombia in recent years has suffered contractions in its economic and social growth due to failures in the fulfillment of some of its projects. This research aims to make a diagnosis of the level of maturity in the management of construction projects in this sector, in order to analyze the variables that intervene in the efficient development of these interventions and based on this, identify opportunities for improvement that allow at higher levels of maturity. To meet these objectives, this research proposes a methodological framework that is divided into three stages: 1) design stage of the measurement instrument, 2) evaluation stage and 3) analysis stage. As a result of applying the methodology, it is obtained that the construction sector under study is currently at a basic - medium maturity level in the management of its projects, which makes it necessary to propose improvement strategies for the 55 opportunities. identified and thus achieve an increase in their level of maturity in project management.
