Abstract :
The main purpose of this paper is to introduce the framework of Systematic Literature Review (SLR) as a
methodology for research on risk identification. Risk identification is a long and tedious process that
often lacks a systematic approach. Therefore, there is a need for a methodical technique to minimize bias
and streamline the process of data collection and refinement in risk analysis research. Systematic
Literature Review has been used vastly in fields such as software engineering and medicine but has yet to
spread to construction management. This paper proposes a framework for application of Systematic
Literature Review in the risk identification process of construction research and practice. In order to
showcase the proposed methodology, a case study is presented where Systematic Literature Review is
applied to identify risks in PPP projects in order to showcase this methodology
