Content

Many businesses of today now recognize the need for a life cycle perspective to guide company actions, in the selection of suppliers, in the strategy of new product ranges, and, in what information is chosen to be highlighted to the customers. However, while availability of data and understanding of the life cycle concept as such continues to grow, there is still inertia in life cycle information having practical implications on decisions and actions throughout the everyday work in the company.

This seminar presents results from a project aimed at a better understanding of companies’ internal uses of life cycle information. Examples of barriers and enablers for increased impact of life cycle information are given, and a process to ease implementation throughout the company is discussed.

There will be time for questions and discussion after the presentation.
