Literature pertaining to the definition and delineation of managerial control is reviewed. In addition, literature positing a potential link between technology and the process of control is assessed. It is evident that there is wide variability in how managerial control has been defined and delineated; however, it appears that there is common agreement on several key underlying components. There is also evidence that control may be an important link between technology and behavior/performance. A conceptual frame-work for this linkage is presented and discussed
