This study aimed to analyze scientific papers published between 2020-2025 in the Scopus and SciELO platforms focused on electronic governance in municipal management. A total of 10 articles from these databases were selected and reviewed. It was found that the SciELO database contains few studies specifically addressing municipal e-governance in local Peruvian contexts, although it offers relevant insights that reflect the challenges and opportunities of Latin American municipalities. On the other hand, Scopus presents broader coverage and a greater number of publications, which highlights its international scope and the diversity of approaches that contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of digital governance processes at the municipal level. In conclusion, the evidence underscores the importance of strengthening electronic governance mechanisms in local governments, emphasizing technological infrastructure, digital inclusion, and institutional capacity. This requires an interdisciplinary and context-sensitive approach that can address technical, social, and political barriers, thereby fostering transparency, citizen participation, and efficiency in municipal management.
