Project Renewal
Project Renewal was launched in October 2011 to reduce the complexity of the organization and increase investment in growth platforms within the business. Under Project Renewal, the Company is simplifying and aligning its businesses around two key activities, Brand & Category Development and Market Execution & Delivery; simplifying and streamlining the supply chain and overhead and partnering functions to align with the new structure; and optimizing its selling and trade marketing functions. Cumulative costs of Project Renewal are expected to be approximately $690.0 million to $725.0 million pretax, with cash costs of approximately $645.0 million to $675.0 million. Approximately 60% to 70% of the total costs are expected to be restructuring costs, a majority of which are expected to be employee-related cash costs, including severance, retirement and other termination benefits and costs. Project Renewal is expected to be complete by the end of 2017.
