Organizing for Management Controls

A plan for establishing management controls is presented which uses the basic management control principles of organizing, planning, executing, and follow-up. The particular experience of our company is cited whereby the assignment was given to staff personnel who had the requisite experience and company service. Each of the steps in the control process is explained, with emphasis on the follow-up activity which makes possible the continuing acceptance and usefulness of the established controls. The importance of building an over-all operational system is also discussed.
