The Agile may help service delivery and increase satisfaction. The objective of this work is to research implementation of Agile methodology study cases in the public administration, in order to report the practices and results of this application. To develop this work a research was carried out, based on the last seven years of scientific publications in Science Direct, Scopus and Web of Science periodical databases. Through the research, studies were identified with reported application practices of Agile Methodology in the global and Brazilian public administration scenarios. By exploring the researches, studies address ways to start a project, its difficulties and benefits. This work shows that the culture is still the highest challenge to adopting Agile.
