Let's just say that there were some bureaucratic hurdles, as in rules and regulations that existed in the CDC system for the production of test kits. If we take that at face value, then all the work that has been done over the last three years by the Trump administration to eliminate unnecessary rules and regulations would likely have taken care of that problem, much as they have done with the EPA, etc.
After all, they have had more than three years to "fix the problems" of the previous administrations. Right? What have they been waiting for? A crisis?
