​2. In an integrated system, controlling can work with up-to-date and more precise data gathered by the system. Increased accuracy can save on administrative, labour, maintenance or purchase costs.
 

​3. Controlling being very data- and calculation-heavy work, a system’s power and tenacity can save on labour costs, and allow for more complicated calculations when beneficial.
