Abstract:
This article presents a systematic literature review concerning the use of metrics for estimating effort, cost, and timescale in the scope of software development services for the federal public administration sector, which seeks to obtain subsidies to reply to what metrics are used around the world and can be adopted within the Brazilian normative framework and applied to the sourcing of Information Technologies services. The systematic review is strongly related to the knowledge of associated literature, which can help us to understand the question. The research was conducted in some databases (AMC Digital Library, IEEE Xplore, Science Direct – Elsevier, Springer, Annals SBES and Annals SBQS) to which many filters were applied to obtain a set of articles that with thematic synthesis can highlight the adoption of expert-based estimation technique and metrics that address complexity. Finally, it was possible to find that there is truly little material related to the Brazilian case, which can highlight the importance of both systematic review and research.
