It lists the usual suspects for why those spending the money think they don't have to estimate how much they plan to spend when they'll be done producing the value they've been assigned to produce for that expenditure. Thus, the common approach to "measure productivity" is to compare the estimates against what, in fact, happened.

Traditional project management approaches, several of which are based on a strong belief in the cone of uncertainty, advocate stronger project control and greater planning. While controls and planning are useful, an overly strict focus can result in attempts to solve the wrong goal. This assumes of course the Plan is credible.
