"Bureaucrats grant contracts according to friendships, campaign donations, political affiliations, sometimes even religious affiliations. That means that pricing is often inefficient. Large companies with more capital can use that capital to influence the outcome of the contract tendering process."

In a recent example of this most if not all of the companies doing public sector builds were found to be fixing prices.. unfortunately the police and courts were only allowed to investigate and prosecute a few of the defrauding companies. Something those prosecuted objected to as those just as guilty got away with it.

I think the time of investigating thousands of companies accounts would have impacted on investigations into other crimes.
