This study reviewed previous studies on the definition of environmental management and the concept of integrated management in construction projects and their linkage to sustainable development and barriers to implementation. The paper also presented a link to some papers during the past eight years with a focus on what was published in the last three years. It noted that the integration of the various programs and project management systems and the transition to work on a wider scale from the organization to the state, to projects on a global scale and with integrated programs will be the most advanced towards Achieving sustainable development. During the study, the importance of environmental awareness at various levels, from citizens to decisionmakers as well as the development of legislation in force in the country or at the UN level, was noted. The global application of sustainable development programs is limited. Therefore, the most effective system for sustainable development is the most comprehensive system of integration in wider area.
