Tanhony's Proposal

Expected annual

$17.7M

One-time setup

$10.1M

Annual recurring

$17.5M

📋 Confidence Notes

Analyst notes provide detailed line-item ranges but many items have wide uncertainty (per-event spikes, institutional risk tolerance, existing Site-01 capabilities). Estimates use mid-range selections for budgeting; contingency and incident costs remain highly variable.
