This work was carried out with a quantitative, non experimental and of transversal characteristics approach, using as methodology the structural equation mode-ling (SEM) with transactional design. It is concluded that the capacity for knowledge management (CGC) in organizations has a positive and significant influence on process innovation (IP), while human capital (CH) turned out to be a factor that significantly influences, positively, the CGC, constituting this in a need to perform IP. A mathematical model was developed that allows to pbkp_redict the type of company with respect to its innovation.
