TRANSFORMATION STRATEGY COSTS TRANSFORMATION STRATEGY COSTS
We are undertaking an enterprise-wide transformation of our organization that includes initiatives, as well as changes in processes and technology, that impact global direct and indirect operating costs. During the quarter, we began implementing staffing adjustment initiatives to reduce our overhead cost and better align direct labor headcount with volumes. As of June 30, 2023, we recorded an accrual for separation costs of $85 million on the consolidated balance sheet. We expect substantially all of these costs will be paid by December 31, 2023.
The table below presents transformation strategy costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 (in millions):
