Fireing the CIO only helps if you give the next one enough power to solve the issues, even if it means serious disruption in the organization, with unhappy unions, middle managers etc, which may lead to resignations, short term cost increases and even operational downtime (though hopefully less critical services than payroll) A lot of organizations, the company culture becomes so entrenched that almost no amount of C-level meddling will make a big difference. And this is especially common in government organizations (and in companies with very strong unions).
