rationalisation


Explanation:
Think of it in a different way. Rationalisation (or rationalization, Amer.) refers to restoring the firm or the portfolio to health, or to making it healthier and stronger, by removing deadwoods, and by organizing for better efficiency, ready to take on the challenge once the world economy starts to recover. It can cover some or all of the concepts of restructuring, reorganizing, retrenchment, downsizing, and the like.

Definition:
3. RATIONALISE - structure and run according to rational or scientific principles in order to achieve desired results; "We rationalized the factory's production and raised profits"
rationalise
organize, organise - cause to be structured or ordered or operating according to some principle or idea.

. . .

5. Chiefly British To bring modern, efficient methods to (an industry, for example).
