This feels weird, when you ask them directly "Why did this milestone get missed, when it seemed on-track?", what are they telling you? Do they have other priorities and tasks from other managers? Else, what is going on? If you ask the other managers, what do they tell you? Are your team's priorities misaligned with your priorities? It feels like there are some basic conversations missing, or people aren't taking you seriously, or they have conflicting incentives.
