Reasons for SEO not being able to be properly implemented on a site will always crop up over the course of a campaign. Sometimes it's technological issues with how the site is designed, other times it's client preferences on how the changes should be implemented.

For security reasons, some client's refuse to allow their SEO access to their site. That's fair, and certainly their right to do so, but that company must also take on the responsibility of making all such changes and bear the blame if the results of the SEO campaign are less than expected.

This makes a strong argument toward selecting an SEO provider that does more than simply provide recommended changes, but actually implements those changes for their clients. Excuses for lack of SEO implementations can be significantly minimized and in many cases eliminated when the client gives the SEO the responsibility of implementing all the optimization changes themselves. This removes the client from the process allowing for faster implementation of more changes for increases ranking results.

Are you willing to give the SEO access to your site to make the changes necessary that will produce results? If so, be select an SEO that includes implementation as part of their optimization services. Not only will that save you time and money, it will also ensure that your SEO campaign can and will be more effective.
