- Controlling helps organizations to readjust their plans in cases of changes in the
environment. Plans will thus remain appropriate.
- A proper control system will help a manager to grasp all the inner working of the
organization. It can provide instant data on inventories of all resources, raw materials,
work-in-progress and finished goods.
- Control procedures help to detect errors in good time. A small error not detected early
can become bigger and.afflict the whole firm e.g. use of faulty raw materials will result in
faulty products which in effect will lead to poor sales.
- Controls therefore help managers to answer a very important question, 'how well are we
doing?'
