Life Cycle Management is…
… the application of life cycle thinking to
business practices, with the aim to
systematically manage the life cycle of
an organisation’s products and services
… the systematic management of
product and material life cycles, to
promote production and consumption
patterns that are more sustainable than
the ones we have today
…a flexible integrated, management
framework of concepts, techniques and
procedures to address environmental,
economic, and social aspect of
products, procedures and organisations

Case Study – Mercedes S-Class
Design
• Considered the whole life cycle of the
car including:
– Production of materials and
components
– A service life of 300,000 km
– Disposal
• They considered 40,000 individual
processes
• They used a life cycle assessment
software (Gabi 4.0) to consider 200
input and 300 output parameters

Results
The first car with an environmental
certificate
Exceeds EU NOx and hydrocarbon
emissions regulations by 85 and 75%
Improved fuel efficiency and noise
reduction
Used water based paints to reduce
solvent emissions

Case Study – 3M
Why is 3M using Life Cycle Management?
•
•
•
3M produces close to 500 new products every year
In the 1990s started managing all aspects of a
product from idea phase through to use and disposal
According to 3M’s CEO
“[Life Cycle Management is] a commitment we
must embrace to maintain our environmental
leadership and to strengthen our competitive
position”
31
31
Case Study – 3M
How is 3M using Life Cycle Management?
• 3M uses a matrix to identify the impact of
products or processes over their entire life
cycle
32
32
Case Study – 3M
How is 3M using Life Cycle Management?
• 3M uses a matrix to identify the impact of products or
processes over their entire life cycle
• They use this to identify both product risks and
opportunities
– Risks: hazards of the product, degree of uncertainty and
feasibility to control exposure
– Opportunities: address solutions to these issues
33
