The management of any complicated multi-level system requires that problems are identified in order to correct them. Unfortunately, political/hierarchical systems use to the CYA principle of looking for someone to blame rather than how to fix. This compounds issues as mistakes are denied, minimized or ignored until they become too big. By then, someone has to be punished and is dismissed or promoted away preventing a "learn-from-mistakes" environment. Governments need to buffer the CAF from the politics of the procurement process in order for it to evolve.
