› Strategic control is concerned with tracking a strategy as it is
being implemented, detecting problems or changes in its
underlying premises, and making necessary adjustments.
› Strategic control is concerned with guiding action on behalf of
the strategy as that action is taking place and when the end
result is still several years off.
  Õ     
› The control of strategy can be characterized as a form of
"steering control".
› As time lapses between the initial implementation of a
strategy and achievement of its intended result,
investments are made and numerous projects and actions
are undertaken to implement the strategy.
› During that time changes are taking place in both the
environmental situation (e.g. competitors launching new
products or change in government regulations) and the
firm's internal situation (core competencies being
achieved, learning curve effect).
› Strategic controls are necessary to steer the firm through
these events.
› Strategic controls must provide the basis for adopting the
firm's strategic actions and directions in response to these
developments and changes.
