10 to 15% would probably be a great record for the government.

Are you kidding?
No.
Government does a thousand very different things, every day. Far, far, far more than even the most diversified company. They have their fingers in virtually everything that happens in this country, from commerce and trade to legal and prisons to stop signs and concrete specification to zoning and landscaping, on and on, everything.
Which is one of the main reasons why 10 to 15% would be a good record for government (along with the lack of competition and the ability to extract funds rather than having to find willing buyers). Try to do so much, and your unlikely to get great performance. Concentrate on the low hanging fruit and your success rate will be much higher.
