The major challenge for software project control
is to adapt to the associated control practices in order to achieve sustainability for the software project. This paper reviews software project control practices in a number of control perspectives, namely organizational controls, project management, software engineering and cybernetic management. The aim is to extend the concept of controlling software project towards adapting appropriate control practices. A number of
basic control components are identified to better understand the control practices. We found that (a) control elements create its own complexities on software project control; (b) communication between the controller and controlee is important in identifying and understanding control direction; (c) each individual has their own roles in practicing software project control; and (d) there is a needs for organizing
complexities in managing software project control practices. The principal recommendation is to understand proper control practices in studies of various complex situations of software project control.
