Role Count Notes
Security Officer / MTF Agent 72 24 guards per site × 3 sites; wage assumptions derived from note #12 (24 guards/site × $75k each).
Medical Officer 6 Minimum two medics per site (2 × 3 sites); broader trauma/burn care and on-call specialists are budgeted in medical line-item but not as full-time headcount in staff_wages.
📋 Confidence Notes
Analyst notes are detailed with per-item estimates, but several recurring assumptions (transfer frequency, staffing blends, contingency usage) require judgment. Anomalous behavior and incident frequency add uncertainty.
