1. What is Life Cycle Costing?1. What is Life Cycle Costing?
A methodology that treats design decisions as investments in buildings and building systems & components.
The value of future benefit(s) must be established to determine the extent of the investment that is justified.

What is Life Cycle Costing?What is Life Cycle Costing?
LCC integrates these aspects in a framework based upon the value of money over time.
Life-Cycle Cost Analysis (LCCA) is a method of economic analysis that sums all relevant project costs over a given study period in Present Value (PV) terms (Today’s $).
