I would make sure we create and have a process in place. Of course, the process is built with people and technology in mind.

Seems like a no-brainer to me. Process and technology are absolutely worthless without the people to drive them.

Generally I try to give people top priority. It would depend a lot on the division of spend. If my budget is 97% Salaries/benefits and 2% Technology and 1% Process…. And the budget cut is 15% in total, the only way to solve that equation is cut people. If my Technology budget was 50% of my total budget I would squeeze technology as hard as possible, then the remainder comes from people. I’ve never seen Process take a very large percentage of any budget so probably little room there to reduce costs
