It's so easy to add procedures whenever something "bad" happened. If nobody caught a bug, add a testing procedure. If someone didn't fix a bug, add a verification procedure.
Sometimes procedures are just a real pain. Especially in small companies. It's just too easy to add a procedure whenever something slips through a crack. Sure, procedures can be fine, but they can also limit flexibility and efficiency.
For example, requiring a full-blown bug report every time something goes wrong in an application is a waste of time. If someone notices a typo, just go and tell whoever needs to be told! By the time you've filled out all the fields in your bug reporting software, a developer could have fixed the problem and be on her way with the next task.
