Hello,
Cost-cutting can be implemented in various aspects such as manpower, work scheduling, daily consumables, mode of transport, energy costs, and additional benefits for staff. Before proceeding, it is essential to categorize the needs based on necessity, importance, lack of importance, and extravagance. This categorization should also take into account the cost versus benefit analysis for each need.
This overview provides a broad perspective. To delve deeper, let's examine things at a more detailed, micro level.
Cheers

Dear Shweta,
First of all, I want to know why you are going for cost-cutting. Please do not use it solely for making numbers; if for any other reason, please follow the below points:
You can make a list of Admin Activities:
1. Stop Overtime.
2. Choose the right person for the right job.
3. Give leave to unnecessary manpower (For example, if you have 100 employees, then give leave to some for one to two weeks and rotate this among others).
4. Save electricity.
5. Evaluate the mode of transportation.
6. Stop additional benefits to senior staff and motivate employees to extend their working hours. For instance, extend office hours from 9:00 am to 7:00 pm and reduce lunchtime to half an hour.
For any further assistance, please email me at amitsharmaji@rediffmail.com.
Thanks,

Hello,
You need to confirm how many employees are there in your company and in which section you want cost-cutting, i.e., Admin, Accounts, HR, or any other. Specify your requirements for an effective solution.

Hello Shweta,
TRAVEL BOOKING:-
1. You can book 2nd class tickets instead of 1st class when the same is very urgent.
COURIER
Try to communicate through emails instead of sending letters if possible. You can scan the documents and send them to the concerned people.
ELECTRICITY
Inform all staff to SAVE ELECTRICITY by providing training on saving electricity, switching off fans, lights, xerox machines, etc., when not required or during lunch hours, keeping the AC at the required temperature, and not keeping PCs on Hibernating mode when leaving the office.
ADMIN
- Encourage staff to consume tea/coffee within a minimum limit.
- Consider changing the housekeeping service for more effective rates.
- Reduce the use of stationery.
- Avoid personal calls during work hours.
- Lock the outgoing phone instruments and grant permission to some staff (sales, HR) to use them.
