One-time setup
$5.9M
Annual recurring
$7.1M
Personnel
19
One-time capital and integration costs total approximately $5.86M (major driver: optional in-house neuroimaging purchase and chamber retrofits); ongoing annual operations are roughly $7.06M driven by research programs, contingency reserves, and staffing.

⚡ Cost Scenarios
📊 Baseline (baseline) $7.1M/yr
88.0% probability / year
Normal year with planned staffing, research program, contingency reserve contributions, and routine maintenance/drills; no major incidents or breaches.
steady operations scheduled research activity no containment incidents
🚨 Minor Incident $7.2M/yr
10.0% probability / year +$100K vs baseline
Single-site incident such as a death or serious containment event requiring extra medical response, autopsy, targeted decontamination, and additional short-term staffing.
isolated death or severe infection site-level decontamination and autopsy
🚨 Major Outbreak $12.1M/yr
2.0% probability / year +$5.0M vs baseline
Significant breach or multi-site outbreak requiring mass quarantine, large-scale mobilization, public secrecy operations, and drawing on contingency reserves.
multi-person spread outside containment public exposure requiring large-scale response
👥 Personnel 19 total
Role Count Notes
Security Officer / MTF Agent 12 [#6] Night-shift and perimeter control staff (estimated 2–4 FTE per infected; scaled to 4 infected → ~12 security FTEs).
Monitoring Technician 4 [#7] 24/7 EEG/REM and CCTV monitoring (estimated 1.5–2 FTE per 2 beds; scaled to 4 beds → 4 FTEs).
Medical Officer 2 [#8] Part-time psychiatry/neurology/sleep-medicine coverage and nursing oversight allocated to the infected cluster.
Driver / Escort 1 [#19] Dedicated secure transport driver/escort staffing (regularly assigned personnel).
📋 Confidence Notes
Analyst notes provide detailed line items and ranges, enabling midpoint estimates; uncertainty remains around frequency of incidents, number of concurrently managed infected beyond four, and decision whether to purchase in-house neuroimaging (large one-time swing), so confidence is medium.
