Cost Reduction Program
During the fourth quarter of 2019, we began a cost reduction program to improve performance and enhance margins by streamlining the organizational structure and investing in technology to drive productivity. We recognized $2.3 million of severance and other restructuring costs for this program during the three months ended April 4, 2021 and an immaterial amount during the three months ended March 29, 2020. These costs were incurred by both the Enterprise Solutions and Industrial Solutions segments. The cost reduction program is expected to deliver an estimated $60 million reduction in selling, general, and administrative expenses on an annual basis. We expect to incur incremental costs of approximately $6 million for this program in 2021.
Acquisition Integration Program
We are integrating our recent acquisitions such as OTN, SPC, and Opterna with our existing businesses. The restructuring and integration activities were focused on achieving desired cost savings by consolidating existing and acquired facilities and other support functions. We recognized $1.8 million and $2.2 million of severance and other restructuring costs for this program during the three months ended April 4, 2021 and March 29, 2020, respectively. These costs were incurred by the Enterprise Solutions segment. We expect to incur incremental costs of approximately $2.4 million for this program in 2021.
The following table summarizes the costs by segment of the programs described above as well as other immaterial programs and acquisition integration activities during the three months ended April 4, 2021 and March 29, 2020:

The other restructuring and integration costs primarily consisted of equipment transfer, costs to consolidate operating and support facilities, retention bonuses, relocation, travel, legal, and other costs. The majority of the other restructuring and integration costs related to these actions were paid as incurred or are payable within the next 60 days.
