The objective is to review studies that addressed the implementation of the Bolsa Família Program (PBF), categorizing the main elements of its management. A qualitative research was carried out, with a bibliographic survey based on the databases Cochrane Library, LILACS, Medline, SciELO, Thesis Bank and Dissertation of the Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel, Public Domain Directory and the Periodicals Capes. With a criterion for choosing works that deal with the program's management processes, 27 studies were selected, classifying them in two groups: theoretical essays (n = 10) and empirical studies (n = 17) to evaluate the implementation of the PBF. Among the theoretical studies, three categories of studies stand out: intergovernmental coordination, intersectoral coordination and evaluation and monitoring, while in the empirical studies: the categories of intersectoral articulation, effectiveness in the implementation by the municipalities and monitoring / evaluation by the Decentralized Management Index. We conclude that, despite the fact that the PBF is one of the most relevant programs of Brazilian social policy, academic production regarding its implementation has gaps, such as research on management in the Northeast region and the performance of state governments.
