What is LCCA?
Methodology to determine the most costeffective option among different alternatives to
purchase, own, operate, maintain, and dispose
of a building or building system over its entire
lifetime
Useful to compare project alternatives that are
technically acceptable, but differ with respect to
initial costs and operating costs
Allows an investor to calculate all project costs
and compare cost effectiveness of alternative
investment options
Required by Federal mandates for new design,
renovation, or procurement of energy efficient
projects

Net Savings
The amount that an alternative
project will save over the base case
NS = LCC - LCC
NS calculations can be used to
determine whether to accept or
reject a project (NS > 0)
A project with the highest NS is
equivalent to choosing a project with
the lowest LCC

Savings to Investment
Ratio
SIR =
SIR > 1 generally means that a
project is cost effective
Can be used to accept or reject a
project
Useful in ranking and prioritizing
independent projects (a higher SIR
means higher savings)

Simple or Discounted
Payback
Time required for the cumulative
savings from a project to recover its
initial investment costs
Calculations ignore all future costs
and savings that occur after the
payback period has been reached
Used as a rough measure on whether
to accept or reject a project
Payback period < Project life equals a
valid project

LCCA Resources
FEMPs Building Life-Cycle Costing (BLCC)
software can help calculate LCC, NS, SIR,
AIRR, and PB
NIST Handbook 135, Life-Cycle Costing
Manual, is a guide to understanding LCC
methods and criteria established by FEMP
Annual Supplement to NIST Handbook 135
details discount factors and price indices
as determined by FEMP as well as formulas
and tables for PV calculations
