Critical Point Control:

• It is neither economical nor easy to keep a check on each and every activity in an organisation.

• Control should, therefore, focus on key result areas (KRAs) which are critical to the success of an organisation.

• These KRAs are set as the critical points. If anything goes wrong at the critical points, the entire organisation suffers.

• For instance, in a manufacturing organisation, an increase of 5 per cent in the labour cost may be more troublesome than a 15 per cent increase in postal charges.
