Requires coordination, which can be considered a waste of time
Transparency
Requires data to be collected, which can be seen to be bureaucratic
Holding people to account
Targets-culture
Continuous improvement
Targets-culture/bureaucratic
Consistency
Can require central high-level (top-down) coordination, which can be considered dictatorial
