Streamline and facilitate
Streamline refers to simplifying or restructuring a process or system in order to improve its efficiency, reduce wasted time or resources, and eliminate unnecessary steps or complications.
On the other hand, facilitate implies helping or enabling a process or action to occur more easily by providing support or resources, but does not necessarily involve changing the process itself.
For example, if a company wants to streamline its production process, it might eliminate redundant steps or automate certain tasks to reduce the time and resources required.
If a company wants to facilitate communication between departments, it might set up regular meetings or provide shared digital tools to enable collaboration.
