## Person-day summary (cross-check)

| Trade | Total person-days | From |
|-------|-------------------|------|
| Field installation | 441 | B4 (installation manhours) |
| Programming | 29 | B1 |
| Graphics | 32 | B2 |
| Commissioning | 35 | B3 |
| Engineering / PM / Documentation | ~80 | Estimated 12 weeks engineering + documentation overhead |
| Total | ~617 person-days |  |

At a 4-person blended crew over 46 weeks (230 working days × 4 = 920 person-days available), utilization ~ 67% — leaving headroom for productive overlap. With the loading profile above (6 at peak + 4 standing crew + 1-2 engineers), schedule fits within the 46-week duration without crash-loading.
