Life Cycle Costing
Our free online life cycle costing tool
Our Life Cycle Costing tool (the 'LCC') is free for all housing and construction professional advisors as well as Housing Association officers.
- An important contribution to promoting sustainability
- The right tool for new build projects
Our free Life cycle cost (LCC) toolkit provides an uncomplicated method of demonstrating a commitment to value for money and compliance with HCA Guidelines, which in turn supports grant applications. The toolkit provides British Standard compliant life cycle cost analyses of archetype HCA house types, with just a few clicks on screen.
We have also created project ‘Butterfly’ in collaboration with Willmott Dixon, UCL Energy Institute and University of Cambridge Centre for Sustainable Development. This tool will calculate the life cycle cost and the environmental impact of the design and components for both new build and refurbished residential buildings. Visit 'Butterfly' for more information.

I found the course very informative, not only for the mechanics of how to complete the online LCC tool but for the theory behind the subject.
