Investigating the reliability and validity of data inputs for building life cycle cost (LCC)

Commentators advocate that most practitioners focus only on conversion but very seldom they consider the reliability and credibility of data inputs of Life Cycle Cost (LCC). The research identified two developed LCC conversion softwares in the Malaysian construction industry: LICCOMS and LCCsoft how...

This paper reports part of a three-year programme of research to investigate the current state and practice of LCC in the Malaysian construction industry with specific reference to data inputs of LCC. The research focuses on the data requirements of LCC analysis, where the research gives emphasis on the availability, accessibility, updated and reliability of data inputs for building life cycle cost.
