The Cost Reduction Prioritizer

Help me find and prioritise cost reductions without damaging the business.

Cost base: [PASTE OR DESCRIBE THE MAJOR COST CATEGORIES AND AMOUNTS]
Constraints: [WHAT CAN'T BE TOUCHED, QUALITY/SERVICE FLOORS]
Goal: [TARGET SAVING OR "MAXIMISE SAFELY"]

Produce:
1. The costs ranked by size and by how discretionary they are
2. Savings ideas by category, with a rough size and difficulty for each
3. A prioritisation: quick wins vs structural changes vs don't-touch
4. The second-order risks of each cut (morale, quality, future revenue)
5. A sequenced plan that protects the core while removing waste

Flag any cut that saves money now but costs more later — those are the
traps.
