Generally, developing the system is related to the industry points. Every installation to work requires particular number of them. What affects amount of turns needed to complete the project. So the upgraded systems will make new projects faster than the freshly colonized ones. It happens because every new colony has very little industry points.

The mechanism is easy here. If the particular installation costs 70 Industry Points and system generates 5 per turn, you'll have to wait 14 turns until the project is done.
