the management control can be aplicable on the unpredictable conditions that happend on the life
cycle of firm specially in step growing firm.
The writter given the key place in the MCS literature to the two possible uses of
controling and enabling, given the large number of MCS present at any one time, of their being
some kind of baance between those two major categories of enabling systems and controling
systems. MCS literature that use by the wrtter is to clearly, in some situatuons controlling
systems will be more relevant and in orther situatuions enabling systems are more appropriate.
The writter take those two conflicting possible uses of MCS imply that there is a
dynamic tension between the two and thereforer consistency between them is important. To
more focused literature review the writter used one model or specific MCS. Frame work

enabling systems. The original proposition was that it could be ecpected that an organization
commited to business excellence that operates in an uncertain environtment would adobt a blend
of formal and informal, interactive MCS.
