⚡ Cost Scenarios
📊 Baseline (baseline) $733K/yr
93.0% probability / year
Normal year with routine containment, monthly envelope rotation, and no major incidents.
routine_operations monthly_rotation regular_research
🚨 Minor Incident $748K/yr
6.0% probability / year +$15K vs baseline
Localized incident such as accidental damage to multiple SCP-6449-A copies, minor equipment failure, or short containment disruption requiring overtime, replacement materials and contractor services.

🚨 Major Breach $933K/yr
1.0% probability / year +$200K vs baseline
Significant containment incident or discovery of expanded anomalous properties (e.g., multiple uncontrolled animations, need for quarantine/advanced testing and external contractors).

Role Count Notes
Security Officer / MTF Agent 6 [#6] 24/7 coverage for two guards per shift -> ~6 full-time guards (rotations, leave).
Containment Technician 1 [#7] One full-time containment technician handling daily logistics and swaps.
Research Scientist 1 [#8] One full-time researcher assigned to SCP-6449 testing and monitoring.
Senior Researcher / PI 1 [#8] PI oversight (part-time allocation) represented as one senior researcher for oversight and approvals.
📋 Confidence Notes
Analyst notes provide mid-range estimates and clear line-item structure for personnel and archival needs, but optional advanced testing and site-accounting practices introduce uncertainty; local labor/equipment price variation also affects totals.
