Issue: A high proportion of appropriation was left unused or carried-over in some projects, in particular regarding development cost. The percentage of single bidding in competitive-bid contracts was high. Some systems were found to be underutilized, to have no targets set for grasping the utilization status, or to have no monitoring system in place. There was a considerable gap between the actual reduction in FY2020 in the operational cost and the target.
