OneTEAM Program. In the fourth quarter of 2017, we engaged outside consultants to assess all aspects of our business for improvement and cost saving opportunities. In the first quarter of 2018, we completed the design phase of the project, known as OneTEAM, for our domestic operations, and entered in the deployment phase starting in the second quarter of 2018. In the third quarter of 2019, we began the design phase of OneTEAM for our international operations which was deployed in the fourth quarter of 2019. During the first quarter of 2020, in response to COVID-19 and decline in the oil and gas end markets, we expanded and accelerated the operations and center led pillars from the OneTEAM program in order to implement permanent cost savings and identify further opportunities to optimize our organization.

As part of the OneTEAM Program, we decided to eliminate certain employee positions. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, we have incurred severance charges of $3.4 million and $1.7 million, respectively and the amount we have incurred cumulatively to date is $11.8 million. We expect the program-related expenses to continue through the first quarter of 2021.
