Course description
Life Cycle Costing enables asset managers, project sponsors and delivery teams to evaluate the combined capital and operating costs of different ways of managing built assets and delivering construction projects. Assets can range from entire estates down to specific systems and components and projects can range in size from small plant replacements, to major refurbishment and new-build works. But the same life cycle costing principles must be applied in each case.
Life Cycle Costing is part of the best-value assessment required by Treasury guidance and also helps projects gain BREEAM credits.
This course takes delegates from the very basics of Life Cycle Costing, through to advanced applications of the technique in realistic situations.
There is an option to attend Day 1 only, which will explain the basics and give delegates an appreciation of what life cycle costing can do.
Upcoming start dates
Target Audience and Admission Requirements
Who should attend
This course is aimed at clients, facility managers, designers and contractors who need to calculate life cycle costs to help make better decisions regarding new-build projects, refurbishment projects and building maintenance.
The course will help those commissioning life cycle cost studies to understand what their life cycle costing consultants have reported back to them. It will also help product manufacturers to calculate the life cycle costs of their products against generic competitor offerings.
