Initial Research And Lab Setup $12.8M
[#6, #11, #19, #5] Includes GMP/AMN-868 setup and validation, initial R&D program/lab buildout for memetic countermeasures, initial training program development costs, and initial diagnostic lab equipment purchases.
Facilities $2.4M
[#1, #10, #17] Includes reinforced soundproof humanoid cell construction (two-person capacity with inner enclosures, HVAC, surveillance), interrogation/interview room fit-out, and scalable quarantine buildout/convertible occupancy upgrades.
Equipment $735K
[#8, #9, #18, #20] Covers secure transport vehicle retrofits, one-way communication hardware procurement/integration, air-gapped secure IT/hardware initial purchase, and initial PPE procurement.
D Class Reserve Procurement $85K

📋 Confidence Notes
Analyst notes provide detailed line items and ranges enabling mid-range estimates, but large uncertainties exist around outbreak probability, AMN-868 effectiveness, and worst-case systemic costs, so confidence is medium.
