Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract]  
Project Summit
In October 2019, we announced our global program designed to better position us for future growth and achievement of our strategic objectives (“Project Summit”). As a result of the program, we expect to reduce the number of positions at vice president and above by approximately 45%. The total program is expected to reduce our total managerial and administrative workforce by approximately 700 positions by the end of 2021. We have also reduced our services and operations workforce. As of September 30, 2021, we have completed approximately 95% of our planned workforce reductions. The activities associated with Project Summit began in the fourth quarter of 2019 and are expected to be substantially complete by the end of 2021.
We estimate that the implementation of Project Summit will result in total operating expenditures (“Restructuring Charges”) of approximately $450,000 that primarily consist of: (1) employee severance costs; (2) internal costs associated with the development and implementation of Project Summit initiatives; (3) professional fees, primarily related to third party consultants who are assisting with the design and execution of various initiatives as well as project management activities and (4) system implementation and data conversion costs.
Restructuring Charges included in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, and from the inception of Project Summit through September 30, 2021, are as follows:
