Service Organizations in General
In the 18th and the early part of the 19th century, the workforce in the United States was predominantly in agriculture. After that, it was predominantly in manufacturing. Early in the 20th century, employment in the service sector overtook employment in the manufacturing sector. By 2003, service sector employment had grown to more than twice that of manufacturing. In this chapter we provide insights into management control systems for service organizations.

Some factors that have an impact on most service industries are discussed in this section. (Others, which are characteristics of particular service industries, are discussed later.)
