To begin with the cost saving project for HR department, as a first stage you need to know the current or historical spending areas by HR department.
One of the area being Recruitment. So, just to take recruitment factor answer the below questions.
Stage - 1: Data Collection
Total Recruitment last year or couple of years
Cost for recruitment (cost paid to agencies, referral bonus)
Sources for recruitment (consultancies, referal, campus hire, advertising)
Also, termination within 3 months, reasons for it.
Collect as much as possible details on recruitment
Stage 2: Now, look for opportunities
If you pay more to consultancies, check if those positions can be filled though employee referrals.
Check whether you have clear process on recruitment (effective interview techniques, effective screening techniques and the skills to identify the sustainability of employees)
Stage 3: Implement and evaluate
Once you find the areas of improvement, please implement.
Rather than saving cost to company directly, HR can save a lot by designing clear HR polices and procedures.
Do you have policy leave encashment for employees? Any limit on that?
How about reimbursements and Expenses claim policies?
Are they cost effective now? Please understand your HR department and functions completely and the cost associated to it.
Sometimes, more than cost saving HR can play vital role in improving quality and efficiency.
Good luck for your project.

Let's understand cost can be occuring in more than just in the form of money/expenditure. Time spent on activities that could be done in shorter time is a cost. The opportunity missed is a cost. The dissatisfaction caused in employee is also a cost in a way.
Let's take a simple function- Recruitment.
Big forms could be spending anywhere between thousands to Lakhs in paying to the consultants. However, a lot of hot resumes can be received from organization's own careers section. But that's rather underrated part of the website.
Cost of recruitment can also be significantly decreased by using lesser expensive ways of employee engagement and satisfaction. Every new recruit brings with it the cost of onboarding, the cost of time just to learn the system and processes and much more.
This is just a perspective, which while diving deep into can help in significant cost savings.

Cost Saving in not variable of department e.g. HR, Finance, Production but it is the role you have to play for cost saving in your domain. The cost saving for HR department may not be tangible as the case with production department. But every activity of your department be it recruitment, performance evaluation, employee development can result in huge cost saving may be intangible. The cost saving due to improvement in productivity is result of effort done by HR department.
