Abstract: Project management became a critical tool for today's management success. Nevertheless, the field's authors reflect the difficulty of sharing empirical knowledge between projects. This condition empowered the dynamic capabilities research to become an active branch of science. The research team reviews the literature in the scope through the access of the 25 most cited papers, published from 2014 to 2019. The goal is to interpret and contribute to mitigating the project's missing link while pushing dynamic capabilities science. The findings point to the importance of two branches interrelation in the organisation's long-term success. The accessed papers emphasise common factors, mostly on dynamic capabilities on coming project management tasks. Project management and dynamic capabilities, although different in goals and separated as science branches, can fulfil its missing links. The first, working as an empirical knowledge provider to validate the second's theoretical models, and the latter's improving the prior's continuous learning between projects.
