11 Invoering van een controllersfunctie in een bedrijf
3 (leerzame!) conclusies Invoering van een controllersorganisatie in een bedrijf d.w.z. de passieve administratieve functie (administrateur) wordt een actieve controllersfunctie (controller) is een ingrijpende verandering: - in de totaliteit van het bedrijf - binnen de administratieve functie als bedrijfsafdeling Geringere strakheid in de opzet van de organisatiestructuur leidt tot mindere bruikbaarheid van het 2e instrument voor realisatie van management control. Onmiddellijk gevolg hiervan is dat compensatie wordt gezocht in het 1e instrument. Dit vereist grotere nadruk op informatievoorziening en dus op grotere activiteit van de administratieve (informatieve) functie. De kritische betekenis van functionele bevoegdheden voor een doelmatige functionering van de controllersfunctie.
