| S&G and
partners organises several open workshops Life Cycle Costing
with LCC-Lite throughout the year. In these workshops you learn to work with the theory, the background and appliance of
Life Cycle Costing in your own professional practice.
The purpose is to achieve better cost-benefit analyses that
will lead to better investment and maintenance decisions,
responsible designing to costs, better founded negotiations
and an easy way to calculate the exact cost price.
The costs of assets are fixed at
the beginning of the life cycle, when the asset is acquired
or designed. By using the LCC-method, lots of costs can be
saved.
LCC is a so-called
“design-to-cost” model, providing insight by displaying the
costs (and revenues) over the life cycle graphically.
With LCC most costs can be
saved regarding replacement issues. In these issues the
knowledge about economical principles often still are
inadequate.
Also for suppliers of capital
assets it can be very useful to have a tool to give
goal-oriented and clear advises to customers
That is why
S&G and partners have developed this workshop. The softwaretool LCC-Lite is specially made for cost-benefit
analyses on project level, based on Life Cycle Costing.
LCC-Lite
makes profoundly comparing the costs over the life cycle a
lot easier and faster.
Different
alternatives can be compared and also the economic
replacement moment (ERM) can be determined, with or without
investment alternative.
People from
very diverse organizations have participated in this
workshop and now are capable of applying Life Cycle Costing
in their daily practice. A capability that inevitably will
lead to significant cost savings for the company that they
work for.

The following subjects
are discussed and applied practically:
- Are we
calculating correct?
The knowledge of basic economical principles is tested and
