Reminds me of a case a friend had at his work. They had a (chinese) subcontractor that failed to deliver the component on time so they asked for a report on why this happened and the how it could be prevented in the future.

They expected a long report with the root causes behind the delay, like unclear specifications, wrong estimation scope, unforeseen technical issues etc. Instead they got back a very short and concise reply: "We will find the guilty, and we will punish them"
