Control list, or '''check-list''' is a simple tool to control the correctness and/or [[evaluation]] of the degree of completion of the [[project]]. It contains a series of questions or issues related to the project or its [[environment]].

The biggest advantage of the check-list is its simplicity and speed of obtaining the necessary [[information]]. Its disadvantage is the limited accuracy, and the subjectivity of the evaluation, it is based mostly on the results of observation of the person drawing the check-list.

The effectiveness check-list depends on its complexity. The more accurate and more detailed questions it contains, the greater is its effectiveness, however, it takes much longer time to complete. In project [[management]], the use of check-lists in the implementation phase of the project allows to quickly assess the [[status of the project]] and potential delays or problems.

Check-list in [[project management]] should be established in the [[planning]] phase of the project, it constitutes a valuable tool for monitoring the implementation and [[final inspection]] of each complex project.

During project implementation, managers draw up also auxiliary check-lists, containing only certain issues, important in particular project phase or task. Such lists can be used to enhance the [[efficiency]] of [[operations management]] and ongoing [[monitoring of the project]].
