Yes. Because something keeps holding up the development. At this point it looks like the design is finalized since they are constructing it.
But components like power source and stuff aren’t necessarily ready. Galen Erso stalls it a bit wherever he can. There is also an episode of Rebels with a giant crystal that gets destroyed that obviously was meant to go to the Death Star project. I imagine finding suitable crystals took time as well.
