John
Wuertz Director of Physical Plant Maintenance |
Does the the institution employ Life Cycle Cost Analysis (LCCA) as a matter of policy and practice when evaluating energy and water-using products and systems?:
Does the institution employ LCCA as a matter of policy and practice across the operations of the entire institution (i.e. all divisions)?:
A brief description of the LCCA policy(ies) and practice(s):
It is not in a written policy, although it is a matter of practice to consider the LCCA of all large purchases. We consider future/prolonged maintenance, operation costs, and future/unrealized savings in the LCCA.
Being a small college, all major purchases of equipment go through the physical plant and fall under the purview of the physical plant director. Having a sole position in charge ensures these best practices are followed.
