It's too slow,
there are too many layers,
the aims and objectives of the individual layers are too different in practice
I don't disagree.
I was thinking of CWS. I've seen similar omissions solved, but don't ask me how. I mean when there is an obvious requirement and OR have given their endorsement but some VSO has stopped it, which is what seems to have happened here. Another part of an established process has kicked in and the kit has been procured. I'm not talking about UORs. I'm trying to say that, if this can be achieved, then there must be a process that works, if followed. A procurer will explain it better.
