Life Cycle Costing of Military Equipment
Military assets are generally appraised at the acquisition stage on the basis of their total life cycle costs. This study provides a theoretical foundation and a parametric cost model for forecasting the life cycle cost for any kind of heavy military equipment. In the model, the asset operating and maintenance (O&M) costs are estimated as a function of its age over its optimal operational life....
متن کاملA Capacity-Costing Methodology
This paper describes a hybrid technical-financial procedure for allocating cost in a large data center. It is designed as a modeling tool to permit IIWHAT-IF" analyses for various configurations, levels of costing. etc. The use of modular programming, independent tables, and matrix output allows the modeler maximum flexibility in allocating cost according to changing technical and financial con...
متن کاملLife-Cycle Costing Integration with Bridge Management Systems
Many countries are using bridge management systems (BMSs) as the main toll for the effective management of their bridges. Although many BMSs contain some forms of life-cycle cost analysis (LCCA), the use of LCCA in bridge engineering is scarce and LCCA has mainly been applied to support decisions related to existing bridges. This paper discuss the need of a BMS with an integrated LCCA tool that...
متن کاملAn Integrated Framework for Life Cycle Costing in Buildings
This paper summarises the difficulties in the application of life cycle costing (LCC) as a decision making tool in the construction industry on the parts of the client, the analyst and the industry practices. Life cycle costing encompasses a great deal of uncertainty, functions of which are data imperfection, randomness and ambiguity. The traditional use of the probability theory and statistics...
متن کاملTHE DEVELOPMENT OF AN INTEGRATED LIFE CYCLE COSTING MODEL USING OBJECT ORIENTED AND VR TECHNOLOGIES An integrated life cycle costing model
There is an increasing realisation of the importance of operation and maintenance as opposed to capital costs throughout the life of an asset. In addition, new styles of contracts such as PFI (Private Finance Initiative) are becoming more popular. This will require that the building product is addressed within its holistic picture including the design, construction and maintenance. It is theref...
