Suppose my boss asked me to complete a task, and the standard method takes a week of my time. But I did some research and I found another method, which only takes a day, but is equally good!
How would I refer to this without sounding like I cut corners? "Finding a shortcut", for example, might imply laziness.

The term efficiency is defined as ‘relationship between the result achieved and the resources used’.
