downscale
Reduce in scope
Downscale means to reduce in size, scope, or scale: The company downscaled operations after the merger.
It also describes something modest or low-end, the opposite of upscale: a downscale motel, downscale retailers.
The adjective carries connotations of cheapness or lower quality, while the verb is more neutral—simply making something smaller.
