Life-cycle Cost Analysis

Life-cycle Cost Analysis is a method of calculating the cost of a system over its entire life span. Our clients have found that a life cycle cost analysis is a valuable tool during the design phase of a project in order to determine the most cost effective solutions before substantial costs are incurred. The analysis includes such costs as Planning, Design and Development Costs, Product Costs, Maintenance Costs, and Disposal Costs. LCC analysis often uses values calculated from other reliability analyses like failure rate, cost of spares, repair times, and component costs.

Energy Project Financing

Advantek’s innovative financing approach combines the benefits of the traditional bid-spec project with the financial ease of performance contracting. Advantek manages or performs the energy study, produces a design concept and, once the project is approved, preliminary design specifications and drawings. From that point, a carefully managed energy services company produces a final design, and finances and completes construction. Advantek provides management and construction oversight, and measurement & verification of performance and savings. The study, design concept, oversight, and savings verification are typically paid outright, or from a zero-interest financing pool funded by seed money and savings.

For smaller projects (less than $250,000) one of Advantek’s energy project financing partners will finance the equipment and construction (usually 75-90% of the total project cost). The finance company is repaid based on the agreed upon portion of savings that our client retains. Using an initial estimate of savings, Advantek maps preliminary project budgets to ensure that the savings will cover all project costs by a wide margin, and that a desired amount of savings will remain available to the client over the life of the project.
