Cintas: Has anyone had recent budget discussions that felt unusually restrictive?

Lately, when discussing resources or even minor operational expenses, the conversations have become incredibly detailed, almost to the point of needing to justify every single dollar. It's a stark contrast to how things used to be where there was a bit more autonomy within established budgets. Now, it feels like every requisition, no matter how small, is scrutinized heavily. I've heard whispers about stricter financial controls being implemented across the board, but nothing concrete. Trying to understand if this is a company-wide directive or if it's just specific departments feeling this pressure. Has anyone else been through this recently? It's making planning and even day-to-day operations a bit more challenging than usual. Feels like we're being asked to do more with less, but the 'why' is being kept pretty quiet.
