The clue for blank (i) lies in "the combined consequences of those decisions often are not considered", the words "combined consequences" and "not considered" imply that the decisions are taken independently.
The clue for blank (ii) lies in "As a result", as a result of not considering the combined consequences the patterns observed over large periods of time is not sufficient, hence the patterns are not adequately analyzed.
Blank (iii) needs a word that describes something that is collective by nature. The meaning is supposed to read "This is why the collective assessment is not working", hence cumulative.
