Management process is a systematic way of doing things. I refer to management as a process to emphasize that all managers, irrespective of their aptitude or skill, engage in some inter-related functions in order to achieve their desired goals.

In detail:
Monitoring the organizational progress toward goal fulfillment is called controlling. Monitoring the progress is essential to ensure the achievement of organizational goal. Controlling is measuring, comparing, finding deviation and correcting the organizational activities which are performed for achieving the goals or objectives.
Controlling consist of activities, like; measuring the performance, comparing with the existing standard and finding the deviations, and correcting the deviations.
Control activities generally relate to the measurement of achievement or results of actions which were taken to attain the goal. Some means of controlling, like the budget for expenses, inspection records, and the record of labor hours lost, are generally familiar. Each measure also shows whether plans are working out.
If deviations persist, correction is indicated. Whenever results are found to differ from planned action, persons responsible are to be identified and necessary actions are to be taken to improve performance. Thus outcomes are controlled by controlling what people do.
Controlling is the last but not the least important function of management process. It is rightly said, "planning without controlling is useless”. In short we can say the controlling enables the accomplishment of plan.

The management process designs and maintains an environment in which personnel’s, working together in groups, accomplish efficiently selected aims. All managers carry out the main functions of management; planning, organizing, staffing, leading and controlling. But depending on the skills and position on organizational level, the time and labor spent in each function will differ.
Monitoring and Evaluation is an important aspect of project management. Although the controlling stage is the optimum stage to review. This should be done regularly throughout the course of the project to ensure that is following the correct path and ultimately does not go of course. Regularly monitoring of stages of a product ensures correct procedure is being followed.
