Optimization of Facility Management based on a Life-Cycle Cost Analysis

Facility management can be viewed as an integrated approach for total problem-solving whichincorporates management strategies and techniques to aid in decision-making related to facilityplanning, design/construction, operation and maintenance in most economic ways. From the operation and maintenance point of view, performance of building service systems isdepreciated as they are operated throughout the years. As service life of the systems is relativelyshort, they need periodic maintenance or replacement to satisfy the requirements of a facility As aresult, OM&R costs generally exceed and sometimes reach 5 times of the initial investment costs.Thus, it is desperately needed to optimize the costs and benefits throughout the life-cycle of afacility, not just to minimize the initial investment costs during the design and construction phase. Therefore, the issues of facility management based on LCC analysis will be discussed as adecision-making tool to optimize the performance and costs. The concept of LCC, decision-makingbased on LCC analysis, and a case study using BLCC program will be presented. The majorobjective of this paper is to demonstrate a systematic method and process to maximize the economicreturn on investment based on LCC analysis.
