I can't comment on the OMF because I know nothing about their organization structures, but I do think
@anciendaze's point about large bureaucratic government organizations has validity.
It's the sort of people that these government organizations tend to attract; they have the wrong sort of mindset; by inclination they prefer status quo over innovation. They prefer homeostasis to moving forward.
Same can be the case with large corporates: they can attract the "steady as she goes" sort of people that feel uncomfortable with change. That's why all the best innovation usually comes from tiny startup companies, not behemoth corporates.
So it's not just the large corporate organizational structures that can stifle innovation; it's also the sort of stagnant-minded people these large corporates attract.
For example, what positive steps has the CDC ever taken in their decades of involvement with ME/CFS?
For a start, the CDC were responsible for creating the duplicate disease classification of CFS, which was unnecessary, since the ME classification already existed, and was a disaster for the whole field (except for disability insurance companies, who were able to save billions in disability payouts as a result of the creation of CFS).
When the CDC was looking into cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET), even though it is the two-day CPET test that only on the second day is able to distinguish ME/CFS patients from healthy controls, the CDC incomprehensibly and incompetently chose to do only a one-day CPET examination of ME/CFS patients!

When recently Dr Chia sent his ME/CFS patient enterovirus-infected stomach tissue samples to the CDC, because the CDC said they were interested in replicating Dr Chia's finding of an enteroviral stomach infection, after receiving Chia's samples, the CDC left these samples hanging around for a year before they even looked at them. And then when they did finally look at them, the CDC could not find enterovirus. I will place bets that not finding the virus is due to CDC incompetence. Ref:
