Barry Richmonds PhD work on the Growth of govt. should be of interest to
you for a macro-level view. This should be avaialble from MIT libraries
For a micro level perspective, see:
Saeed, K. 1996. The Dynamics of Collegial Systems in the Developing
Countries. Higher Education Policy. 9(1). 1996

Our literature for some time has questioned our ability (or anyone
elses) to model A SYSTEM. We profess to be pretty good at using
simulation and a feedback perspective to address dynamic PROBLEMS.
Perhaps if the sender of this note could rephrase the question to address
a dynamic problem in a bureaucracy there might be some on this list who
could help.

Georges reminder is very important and I slapped myself for not mentioning
the essential qualification in my earlier response. I should add that both
references I provided deal with the growth of bureaucracy and its related
resource allocation and productivity problems.
