When evaluating the various attributes of a
product, there are several standardized tools that
have proven to be invaluable. Life Cycle Cost
Analysis (LCCA) assesses the economic impacts
of a product, and Life Cycle Assessment (LCA)
determines the environmental impact of a product
over its entire lifespan. The results of the LCA are
reported in a comprehensive document called an
Environmental Product Declaration (EPD).
