My Comments :

If there is a problem in the supply chain that is no excuse for these "incidents".
If there is a problem with insufficient maintenance staff, again that is no excuse either.
Better to cancel the flight than wait for the next "incident".

There needs to be an immediate systems audit. 
What is not being done right today? 
Compared to what was done right before?

The next question is WHY.
Then fix it.

Sounds 'oversimplified' but  these are the steps.
