phase out
Phase out refers to the gradual process of discontinuing a product, service, process, or scheme over a certain period of time. It is usually done to replace the old with something new or more efficient, or due to obsoleteness or lack of demand or profitability. Rather than an abrupt halt, it enables smooth transition and adjustment for all parties involved.
