Budgets, Quality checks and milestones are the basic components of a project control system. To use them

1.Focus on what is most important .Which parts of the project are the most crucial to track and control? where are the essential points at which we need to place controls?

2.Build corrective action into the system. Your control system must use information gleaned from your monitoring efforts to initiate corrective action.Otherwise,all you’re doing is monitoring

3.Don’t let control lapse into micromanagement . Encourage the people closest to the problem to make needed corrections.

4.Emphasize timely responses. Corrective actions require real-time, daily , or weekly information about what’s going on with your project.
