September 2020 Plan

In September 2020, we initiated a restructuring plan focused on optimizing our manufacturing footprint and improving operational efficiency by better utilizing our systems capabilities (the "September 2020 Plan"). This plan includes transitioning certain administrative functions to a shared service center, realignment of manufacturing locations, and certain other efficiency improvement actions. The restructuring cost of the September 2020 Plan is estimated to be in the range of $3,500 to $4,500, including workforce reduction charges, building and equipment relocation charges and other contract and asset-related costs. We have incurred $2,279 in program costs to date. We recorded $220 in workforce reduction costs during the three months ended March 31, 2023, under the 2020 Plan. The total restructuring liability associated with these actions was $485 as of March 31, 2023. The total restructuring liability associated with these actions was $634 as of December 31, 2022.

Other Restructuring Activities

From time to time, we may incur charges that are not considered part of a formal plan. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we incurred restructuring charges of $692. The total restructuring liability associated with other restructuring activity was $615 at March 31, 2023 and $235 at December 31, 2022.

During the first quarter of 2023 we announced the shutdown of our Juarez manufacturing facility. As a part of this activity, operations from the Juarez plant will be consolidated into our expanded Matamoros facility. We expect the completion of these activities to occur in 2024. The total restructuring cost of the activities associated with the closure and consolidation is estimated to be in the range of $1,500 to $3,000, including workforce reduction charges, building and equipment relocation charges and other contract and asset-related costs. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we incurred costs of $102 that are associated with the planned Juarez shutdown activities. The restructuring liability associated with the shutdown is $56 as of March 31, 2023. These balances were included in our other restructuring activity amounts referenced in the preceding paragraph.

The following table displays the restructuring liability activity included in accrued expenses and other liabilities for all plans for the three months ended March 31, 2023:
