The BBI Taskforce Report posits that a majority of Kenyans want things done differently. It highlights many factors that impede the implementation of administrative action such as:

• Negative attitude/ lethargy/ poor behaviour within the public service;
• Systems that are created to fail;
• Inadequate funding
• Lack of timely release of funding;
• Lack of political goodwill;
• Duplication or overlapping of functions;
• Too much bureaucracy (inconsistent flow of authority/indiscipline/nepotism/ parallel chain of loyalty where a junior enjoys patronage of his/her boss);
• Lack of information by the public;
• Lack of skills mapping and matching in the public service;
• Low uptake of ICT to reduce human interaction in service delivery in the public service;
• Lack of ethical standards;
• Lack of accountability;
• Lack of responsible citizenship;
• Lack of nationhood (people are not driven by public interest).
  The BBI Taskforce Report proposes many reforms and for these reforms to be realised administratively, Kenya will need:
• Committed Public Officers;
• Government Programmes and Interventions at Family Level;
• Institutional Focus on Administrative Processes in Line with the Constitution and the Law Working
