Having worked in government, seeming incompetence is not the fault of administrators more than you'd think. The ideology of "government is the problem" has led to a lot of legislation that knee-caps good decision making e.g. forcing acceptance of the lowest bid.
Along those lines, as trust was retracted from government agencies expertise was often removed with it. Departments that use to keep technical personnel on staff to review policies and make recommendations were replaced with consultants who usually have many conflicts of interest.
I don't have good solutions, but it's a stick and multifaceted issue. There are no easy answers sadly.
