Overview
This guide has been superseded by BG BG 67/2016 Life Cycle Costing.
This guide was specifically written for clients, contractors, consultants and product manufacturers to understand the long-term economic implications of their proposals and decisions. It is invaluable to those without financial expertise or a track record in life-cycle analysis. It presents a simple process in five sequential steps for the practical calculation of whole-life costs for the construction and operation of buildings. It provides examples to show how the different stages of the process relate to one another, to show how the results are obtained and what they mean.
