Q1 FY20 Plan

On October 28, 2019, the Company adopted a Company-wide restructuring plan ("Q1 FY20 Plan"). Additional actions under this plan are expected to be implemented through the second quarter of fiscal 2021 and cash payments of severance are expected to occur through the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021.

Q1 FY18 Plan

All actions under our Q1 FY18 Plan have been implemented and all severance has been paid. In connection with this plan, the Company entered into a contractual agreement with a third party pursuant to which $10 million of severance and retention costs incurred by the Company was reimbursed. Costs incurred for other exit costs consist primarily of costs to maintain vacant facilities that are owned.

Other plans

Other plans include a number of plans for which costs are not expected to be material individually or in the aggregate.

All Plans

The Company’s Integrated Manufacturing Solutions ("IMS") segment incurred costs of $13 million for the year ended October 3, 2020. This compares to a benefit incurred of $4 million for the year ended September 28, 2019, primarily as a result of a recovery from a third party of certain environmental remediation costs. The Company’s CPS segment incurred costs of $9 million and $18 million for the years ended October 3, 2020 and September 28, 2019, respectively. In addition, $5 million of costs were incurred during the year ended October 3, 2020 for Corporate headcount reductions that were not allocated to the Company's IMS and CPS segments. The Company had accrued liabilities of $9 million and $5 million as of October 3, 2020 and September 28, 2019, respectively, for restructuring costs (exclusive of long-term environmental remediation liabilities).

In addition to costs expected to be incurred under the Q1 FY20 Plan and Q1 FY18 Plan, the Company expects to incur restructuring costs in future periods primarily for vacant facilities and former sites for which the Company is or may be responsible for environmental remediation.
