What a 1% overrun costs you.

The calculator above credits Controls Star with catching just one 0.5% overrun per project per year. Here's what a single 1% overrun looks like on three real-world project sizes — measured against the entire Program-tier cost for the same build duration.

$50M project · 1-yr build
$500,000
Controls Star over 1 yr = $21,000
Overrun = 24× more
$250M project · 2-yr build
$2.5M
Controls Star over 2 yrs = $42,000
Overrun = 60× more
$1B mega-project · 3-yr build
$10M
Controls Star over 3 yrs = $63,000
Overrun = 159× more
The green sliver on each row is the entire Controls Star cost across that project's lifecycle. Barely a pixel. That's the point.
