Explanation

Resource control is the process of monitoring resource usage throughout the program and making adjustments - including releasing resources (like leased equipment) when they are no longer needed. This directly addresses the scenario of identifying when to release resources to reduce costs and improve efficiency. Resource management is a broader knowledge area that includes planning, acquiring, and controlling resources. Contract administration deals with managing vendor contracts and obligations. Procurement management covers acquiring goods and services, not releasing them. Resource control is the specific process of tracking and optimizing resource utilization during program execution.
