Résumé

L'objectif de cet article est de résumer les recherches existantes sur les différentes sources d'incertitude et de les classer en fonction des déterminants et des antécédents abordés dans les projets. Une revue systématique est réalisée à partir d'un total de 140 recherches publiées dans des revues scientifiques à comité de lecture au cours des trois dernières décennies. Nous classons les différentes incertitudes en fonction de leurs caractéristiques individuelles, relationnelles, de groupe, organisationnelles, orientées vers le projet et managériales. En outre, nous avons découvert quelques lacunes telles que la manière dont les incertitudes diffèrent en fonction de la taille de l'organisation, la nécessité d'explorer l'incertitude dans une perspective plus interdisciplinaire, la différenciation des concepts de complexité et de risque avec l'incertitude et le rôle de la théorie du chaos, qui nécessitent une étude future. En s'appuyant sur des résultats significatifs, cette étude contribue, du point de vue de la théorie et de la pratique, à la discipline de la gestion universitaire, de projet et industrielle.
