Project - Software Development Data-Driven Decision-Making for Buildings and Infrastructure

Current methods for life cycle inventory (LCI) data often require significant time and effort from manufacturers to compile. Additionally, without a uniform methodology these can result in inconsistent datasets that are difficult for practitioners to evaluate and compare, even within similar product categories. To address these challenges, PNNL is developing and sharing LCI data templates which streamline data collection and reduce the burden of LCI on manufacturers. These templates drive innovation and cost savings.
