Management Control Systems in Service,
Government and Nonprofit Organizations
 Control systems are more difficult to implement and
maintain:
 Outputs are more difficult to measure
 Quality ratings are less clear
 Important to properly train and motivate employees to
achieve organization's goals and consistent monitoring of
objectives in accordance with critical subgoals
Management Control Systems in Service,
Government and Nonprofit Organizations
 Government and nonprofit organizations face further
problems:
 Goals and objectives are less clear
 Professionals less receptive to control systems
 Lack of profit measure makes measurements more
difficult
 Less pressure to improve from "owners"
 Budgeting is more of a bargaining game to acquire
additional funding and less of a planning tool
 Motivations and incentives of organizational
employees are often drastically different from for-
profit organizations
The Future of Management Control Systems
 A changing environment requires changes in the management control system
Four key
factors must
be monitored
at all times
Important factors to keep in mind:
 Individuals will generally behave in their own self-interest
 Design systems so that individuals pursuing their own self-interest will also achieve the organization's objectives
 Best benchmark for evaluating current performance is expected or budgeted performance
 Nonfinancial performance is just as important as financial performance
 Periodically review the success of the management control system
 Learn from your and your competitors' mistakes
