Objectives: To analyze the control model in the management of infrastructure projects in municipalities and public entities of the department of La Guajira, Colombia. Materials and Methods: The research was descriptive, non-experimental and transactional. The population was composed of supervisors, directors of municipal governments and the government of the department of La Guajira. For the collection of data, we used the technique of observation through the application and questionnaires as research tools. The Cronbach's alpha, and the reliability was 0.87. The treatments were analyzed by means of descriptive statistics. Findings: It is concluded that almost always supervisors and managers of these public entities (municipalities and governance) do consider the dimensions: state of the control of the management of the project, characteristics of the projects, requirements for the control of project management, and the model for the control project management. This is confirmed by the indicators’ behavior of standards at strategic points. In addition, it is envisioned that the checklist and information on the application are below the average of the dimension, in the same way, priority was given to the management of infrastructure projects as level indicators of financial progress. Application / Improvements: Considering the phases of the model of control in project management executed, generates indicators that describe the rules for the verification of the information on your application.
