It seems they have tightly linked service and report classes. First thing I would do is to separate them. Use as few service classes as possible, documentation says less than 20 active service classes should do. You might like to make a first grouping in Prod/Devl/Accept/Test. Besides that, uses as many reports classes as the level detail you want to report in.
