As I understand it, they decided to go off and get a brand new, untested system, when there are already many people-mover systems installed at airports around the world (SIN, FRA, EWR, DEN, HKG).

There was no need to select an untried system that was susceptible to such a delay. And the delay was of unbelievable length.
