An introduction to Life Cycle Assessments and Environmental Product Declarations
This session explains Life Cycle Assessments (LCAs) and Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) in a practical Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing context.
Andrew will share how regulation and client requirements are changing the way products are assessed and selected. He'll draw on current UK and global practice, exploring where EPDs are used in procurement, how they influence project outcomes, and the commercial reality for firms operating without the right product data in place.
In part 2 of our Digitalisation Survey insights, Richard focusses in on AI and future developments.
How AI can help solve key problems faced every day by the electrotechnical sector and where product data and the EDATA data pool fit into this picture.
Edgar will share case studies, with help from a number of technology providers.
