Developing processes with new improved controls sounds important, but I feel like it’s more of a secondary goal rather than the primary one.

Wait, I'm a bit confused. Cutting costs through layoffs and reducing waiting times don't seem like the primary objectives of process design. I think I need to review my notes on this topic before answering.

Okay, let's see. The primary objective of process design is to create processes that are effective, efficient, and flexible. That seems to match option A, so I'll go with that.
