Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Concurrent control is defined as "monitoring and adjusting ongoing activities and processes to ensure they conform to organizational standards and achieve their intended goals." The described scenario of shift supervisors working alongside employees, constantly observing and intervening with immediate corrective action when something is not done properly, matches the definition of concurrent control. Preliminary control involves activities taken in advance to prevent potential problems, unnecessary control is control that does not contribute to achieving organizational goals, feedback control involves measuring performance after the fact and making changes as needed, and feedforward control involves anticipating problems and taking action to prevent them from occurring.
