The failures at Ferrari are technical, not organisational in a direct sense(although the organisation allowed it to happen).
The power train is not as strong as the Mercedes one by a long chalk, but it is not just an engine, but a whole electrical package as well. It's an enormous task even if you have worked on it for two or three years.
The chassis can be fixed to a limited degree but it is much harder if you can't test physically, like Schumacher did a decade ago.
The engine spec is fixed via homologation, which is just stupid in such an experimental era, so really F1 has shot Ferrari (and Sauber and Marussia) in the foot to a degree, but Renault also.
2014 is going to be a political season in more ways than one.
