Save time, empower your teams and effectively upgrade your processes with access to this practical Life Cycle Analysis Toolkit and guide. Address common challenges with best-practice templates, step-by-step work plans and maturity diagnostics for any Life Cycle Analysis related project.

Download the Toolkit and in Three Steps you will be guided from idea to implementation results.

The Toolkit contains the following practical and powerful enablers with new and updated Life Cycle Analysis specific requirements:


STEP 1: Get your bearings

Start with...

  • The latest quick edition of the Life Cycle Analysis Self Assessment book in PDF containing 49 requirements to perform a quickscan, get an overview and share with stakeholders.

Organized in a data driven improvement cycle RDMAICS (Recognize, Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control and Sustain), check the…

  • Example pre-filled Self-Assessment Excel Dashboard to get familiar with results generation

Then find your goals...


STEP 2: Set concrete goals, tasks, dates and numbers you can track

Featuring 991 new and updated case-based questions, organized into seven core areas of process design, this Self-Assessment will help you identify areas in which Life Cycle Analysis improvements can be made.

Examples; 10 of the 991 standard requirements:

  1. How can LCA be used to evaluate the trade-offs between the benefits of nanomaterials (e.g., improved efficiency, reduced material usage) and their potential environmental costs (e.g., toxicity, release into the environment)?

  2. What is the role of stakeholders in helping to identify and address potential social and economic implications of the LCA results, and how can their input improve the overall sustainability of the product or system?

  3. What are the benefits of engaging stakeholders in the development of scenarios or visions for sustainable products or systems, and how can their input improve the relevance and usefulness of the LCA results?

  4. In what ways can LCA support the development of more effective product category rules or sector-specific sustainability guidelines that address both environmental and social sustainability considerations?

  5. What are the benefits of using LCA to evaluate the environmental performance of electronic products in the context of specific industries or sectors, such as consumer electronics or industrial automation?

  6. What are the benefits of engaging stakeholders in the development of communication and education materials related to the LCA results, and how can their input improve the effectiveness of these materials?

  7. What are the challenges associated with conducting an LCA for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in emerging economies, which often lack the resources and capacity for data collection and analysis?

  8. How can LCA be used to evaluate the environmental benefits of different silviculture practices, such as thinning or pruning, and how do these benefits compare to the benefits of other forestry practices?

  9. What role can LCA play in comparing the environmental performance of different forestry intensity levels, and how do these differences influence the overall environmental impacts of forestry operations?

  10. Can LCA be used to evaluate the environmental benefits of using forestry practices that prioritize soil conservation, and what are the trade-offs between these benefits and other environmental benefits?

    • Dynamically prioritized projects-ready RACI Matrix shows your organization exactly what to do next:

 

STEP 3: Implement, Track, follow up and revise strategy

The outcomes of STEP 2, the self assessment, are the inputs for STEP 3; Start and manage Life Cycle Analysis projects with the 62 implementation resources:

  • 62 step-by-step Life Cycle Analysis Project Management Form Templates covering over 1500 Life Cycle Analysis project requirements and success criteria:

Examples; 10 of the check box criteria:

  1. Procurement Audit: Are there reasonable procedures to identify possible sources of supply?

  2. Schedule Management Plan: Do all stakeholders know how to access this repository and where to find the Life Cycle Analysis project documentation?

  3. Initiating Process Group: Have the stakeholders identified all individual requirements pertaining to business process?

  4. Scope Management Plan: Are milestone deliverables effectively tracked and compared to Life Cycle Analysis project plan?

  5. Monitoring and Controlling Process Group: How many potential communications channels exist on the Life Cycle Analysis project?

  6. Procurement Management Plan: Are all key components of a Quality Assurance Plan present?

  7. Risk Audit: Do you have written and signed agreements/contracts in place for each paid staff member?

  8. Risk Register: Financial risk -can your organization afford to undertake the Life Cycle Analysis project?

  9. Activity Attributes: What conclusions/generalizations can you draw from this?

  10. Lessons Learned: Who had fiscal authority to manage the funding for the Life Cycle Analysis project, did that work?

Results

With this Three Step process you will have all the tools you need for any Life Cycle Analysis project with this in-depth Life Cycle Analysis Toolkit.

In using the Toolkit you will be better able to:

  • Diagnose Life Cycle Analysis projects, initiatives, organizations, businesses and processes using accepted diagnostic standards and practices
  • Implement evidence-based best practice strategies aligned with overall goals
  • Integrate recent advances in Life Cycle Analysis and put process design strategies into practice according to best practice guidelines

Defining, designing, creating, and implementing a process to solve a business challenge or meet a business objective is the most valuable role; In EVERY company, organization and department.

Unless you are talking a one-time, single-use project within a business, there should be a process. Whether that process is managed and implemented by humans, AI, or a combination of the two, it needs to be designed by someone with a complex enough perspective to ask the right questions. Someone capable of asking the right questions and step back and say, 'What are we really trying to accomplish here? And is there a different way to look at it?'

This Toolkit empowers people to do just that - whether their title is entrepreneur, manager, consultant, (Vice-)President, CxO etc... - they are the people who rule the future. They are the person who asks the right questions to make Life Cycle Analysis investments work better.

This Life Cycle Analysis All-Inclusive Toolkit enables You to be that person.
