Annual recurring
$2.5M
Personnel
21
One-time setup costs (property control, perimeter hardening, sensors, vehicles, lab setup) are estimated at approximately $8.0M including contingency/relocation reserves; recurring annual costs are about $2.47M/year driven primarily by staff wages (security, monitoring, research) and contracted quick-reaction capability.
🏗️ One-Time Capital Costs Total: $8.0M
Permanent Relocation Facility $5.0M
[#27] Worst-case one-time cost for constructing a dedicated permanent containment facility or full relocation/demolition; large, scenario-dependent engineering estimate included as a catastrophic contingency.
Facilities $1.2M
[#1, #2, #13, #10] Property acquisition/purchase of the condemned school and immediate grounds, perimeter fencing/hardening installation, controlled-access mantrap/interlock installations, and decontamination room fit-out. Figures chosen toward mid-range of provided estimates for a robust initial containment envelope.
Expansion Land Acquisition $1.0M
[#21] Contingent one-time budget for additional land acquisition/expanded perimeter construction if SCP-2093 expands off original property (mid-range contingency).
Equipment $397K
[#5, #9, #8, #12, #23, #24, #14, #26] Fixed monitoring & sensor hardware, remote mapping hardware (LIDAR/drones/robots), entry-team PPE/equipment, data-storage servers, communications hardware, transportation vehicles (vans/trailer), emergency extraction tools, and specialized communication/augmentation devices.
Contingency Reserve $200K
[#20] One-time reserve capital recommended as minimum indemnity/contingency for initial replacement/response costs.
Legal And Cover Setup $125K
[#16] One-time legal fees and cover-story setup costs (property control paperwork, initial PR/liaison establishment).
Initial Research And Lab Setup $100K
[#7] On-site multidisciplinary lab buildout and instrument purchases for initial containment research, mapping, and experiments.
Training Curriculum $12K
[#15] Initial curriculum design and one-time simulation/materials development for entry, breach, medical and interrogation drills.
🔄 Annual Recurring Costs Total: $2.5M/yr
Staff Wages $1.3M/yr
[#3, #6, #7] Salaries and benefits for continuous on-site security (12 guards), continuous monitoring/control-room operators (3–6, modeled as 4 FTE), and on-site research scientists (3 FTE). Aggregate reflects mid-range salaries plus benefits/overtime contingencies.
Research And Monitoring $412K/yr
[#22, #11, #12, #25, #26] Ongoing advanced containment research & experiment budget, psychological counseling/long-term staff monitoring, offsite backups/data archival maintenance, experimental interaction subject costs, and software/service maintenance for specialized communication devices.
Quick Reaction Team $300K/yr
[#4] On-call rapid-response/armed response team capability (contract or dedicated overhead). Mid-range of provided estimate for guaranteed regional response readiness.
Medical Services $100K/yr
[#10] Ongoing medical screening, on-call medic contracts, quarantine procedures and consumables for pre/post mission checks and rapid injury/exposure treatment.
Property Lease $60K/yr
[#1] Alternative to purchase: long-term lease of the condemned property (mid-range lease option). Included as a recurring operational alternative.
Facilities Maintenance $56K/yr
[#2, #5, #18] Ongoing perimeter/fence maintenance and repairs, sensor replacement/calibration contracts, HVAC and basic facility upkeep/utilities related maintenance.
Insurance And Indemnity $50K/yr
[#20] Annual insurance/premium and indemnity allocations separate from one-time reserve; ongoing legal contingency budgeting.
Local Community Management $40K/yr
[#17] Ongoing local community management, misinformation mitigation, FOIA/complaint handling and small local cooperation/liaison costs.
Training And Drills $40K/yr
[#15] Recurring costs for entry/breach/medical/interrogation exercises, contractor fees and simulation consumables.
Supplies And Consumables $37K/yr
[#8, #9, #14, #19] Entry-team consumables and PPE replacements, drone/robot spare parts, emergency extraction gear upkeep, and small-item consumables (gloves, batteries, disinfectants).
Cover Story And Legal $30K/yr
[#16] Ongoing legal fees, PR/cover-story maintenance, and municipal liaison costs for permitted activities and local relations.
Logistics And Transport $20K/yr
[#24] Vehicle operations (fuel, routine maintenance) for vans/trailer used for staff rotation, equipment transport and incident response.
Communications And Telecoms $6K/yr
[#23] Recurring service, SIMs, data plans and maintenance for hardened/encrypted communications systems.
⚡ Cost Scenarios
📊 Baseline (baseline) $2.5M/yr
87.5% probability / year
Normal, uneventful year with steady operations, no major containment incidents.
regular operations scheduled research and training no breaches or major incidents
🚨 Minor Incident $2.6M/yr
10.0% probability / year +$150K vs baseline
Small breach or localized incident requiring overtime, limited equipment replacement and short-term legal/PR response.
localized breach equipment damage/replacement overtime and limited external contracting
🚨 Major Breach $3.5M/yr
2.0% probability / year +$1.0M vs baseline
Significant containment breach requiring multi-day response, large repairs, extended relocation of activities and legal/compensation costs.
extended breach major infrastructure repair external media/legal exposure
🚨 Catastrophic Relocation $9.0M/yr
0.5% probability / year +$6.5M vs baseline
Anomalous expansion beyond property forcing construction of permanent containment or full relocation/demolition.
uncontrolled expansion off-site failure of containment envelope decision to build dedicated facility

📋 Confidence Notes
Analyst notes provide detailed line items and ranges enabling a reasoned estimate, but many high-cost items are scenario-dependent (expansion/relocation) and local property/contract prices vary; uncertainty in frequency of breaches and scope of long-term R&D reduces confidence to medium.
