I'm going to answer only the part that concerns me.
In my case, and even before I arrived, people had a plan for moving forward. A plan had been developed stating the required resources, the required additional personnel and so on. As you can understand, in our organization, sometimes it takes time before you can get resources, award contracts, recruit personnel. It's not done from one day to the next.
We can do it more quickly for certain activities. For example, we managed to get a contract with the Canadian Corps of Commissionaires to increase our bilingual capability in some of the activities that we offer. That took some time. We had to establish contracts.
