"On spec" is open loop control on value. Project Controls are Management Actions, either preplanned to achieve the desired result, or taken as a corrective measure prompted by the monitoring process. Here are definitions from "Technical Measurement," INCOSE-TP-2005-020-10. The Measures of Effectiveness.

This physical percent complete is measured as compliance with the Technical Performance Measures of the outcomes of the work efforts, that consume the budget for that work. Along with the Technical Performance Measures are three other measures needed to assess progress to plan and production of Value.

We need to know the Upper Control Limits (UCL) and Lower Control Limit (LCL) of the ranges of all the variables that will impact the success of our project. With this paradigm we have logically connected project management processes with Control System processesIf the variances, created by uncertainty going outside the UCL and LCL.
