The following steps of controlling are discussed in the given case:
(i) Setting up of performance standards: The first step of controlling process is to set up the quantitative standards. As in the given case assembling of 1000 units per day is quantitative standards set for the workers to achieve.
(ii) Measuring the actual performance: Once the standards have been set, the next step is to measure the actual performance. The actual performance in the given case is assembling of 800 units of air conditioners.
(iii) Comparing the actual performance with standard: The next step in controlling process is to compare the actual performance with standard performance. Such comparisons will reveal the deviations. In the above case the deviation is of 200 units.
(iv) Analysing deviations: In this step reason for diviation is being analised. In the given case it is observed through CCTV. That some workers were busy in gossiping.
