The article is a literature review on the methodology with a qualitative approach, used in academic research on outsourcing in the context of public management. The study was carried out from a search of bibliographic references published in the main platforms/indexers and journals that have public management as their scope, published between 2017 and 2021. Thirty six (36) articles were found (15 national and 21 international articles), from these only Twenty six 26 (13 national and 13 international) applied the qualitative methodology were used in this work. Note that in the researched articles there is a predominance of literature review to address the subject, and that the interview, with a semi-structured script and its various applications, is the predominant data collection method. It is noteworthy that ethnography was also present in the researched articles, as well as non-participant observation, collective reports (focus group) and the combined case study. The content analysis technique is presented as having the highest frequency.
