Governments formally organise Customs, Public Procurement, and related Administrative Authorities as control functions. When this organism functions well, governments experience control without friction. When it fails, the symptoms are unmistakable: delays, leakages, disputes, litigation, cost overruns, and erosion of trust.
Most Public Procurement Authorities still treat Enterprise Architecture as an e-tendering or contract-management modernisation exercise. As a result, EA initiatives fail to prevent cost overruns, eliminate vendor concentration risk, reduce litigation, ensure timely delivery, or stop structural leakage across public spending.
