Part 2. Life Cycle Cost Analysis
Which of the following best describes the institution’s use of LCCA?:
A brief description of the LCCA policy and/or practices:
The plan has two major categories: District responsibility and Campus responsibility. Under these two categories there are two major sub categories: major equipment purchases with a value of $50,000 or greater and minor equipment purchases under $50,000. The Equipment Replacement plan provides for replacement intervals on an annual basis to reduce capital, operating and maintenance costs in order to maximize the safety and efficiency of the equipment across the District. The District’s responsibility is to support facilities, infrastructure and services across the District with the College focusing on equipment that is required in support of its educational mission. Additionally, there is a possibility that some equipment may not fall clearly into either category, and those items will be addressed on a case-by-case basis.
Part 3. Product-specific sustainability criteria
To count, the criteria must address the specific sustainability challenges and impacts associated with products and/or services in each category, e.g. by requiring or giving preference to multi-criteria sustainability standards, certifications and labels appropriate to the category. Broader, institution-wide policies should be reported in Part 1, above.
