Some places will just be bad, that's fine. They may survive as orgs, especially if its just one weak limb in a larger basically competent organization, or if they serve a sufficiently non-competitive niche where being efficient isn't a particularly important goal. NASA is an organization where the outside incentives prioritize a particularly high level of safety in engineering, the US Naval Nuclear program has outside incentives that force both high efficiency/readiness and high safety, my local coffee shop closes sometimes because they run out of cups. Organizations are shaped by the incentives that support them. If there's no particular reason (or, indeed, if there is any room at all to survive) for an organization to be efficient or timely, it won't be.
