Step 1
Evidence Extraction
LCD reviews the underlying data and structure of the report to identify key assumptions, system boundaries, and methodological choices that influence the result.
Life Cycle Decision
How LCD Works
LCD operates between scientific calculation and real-world decision-making. It takes existing environmental reports and translates them into clear, usable guidance for claims, communication, and investment.
Input
LCD works with existing environmental documentation, including Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) studies, Product Carbon Footprints (PCF), Environmental Product Declarations (EPD), and related reports and annexes.
Step 2
Interpretation & Reconstruction
LCD analyzes how results were produced and evaluates their completeness, comparability, and relevance for the intended use, highlighting limitations and potential misinterpretations.
Step 3
Governance & Control
LCD applies a structured interpretation framework to determine whether results can be used for decisions, comparisons, or public claims, and under what conditions.
