Facility management and project management converge when assessing lifecycle costs beyond the initial capital investment.

The introduction of ISO 55000 has made lifecycle costing a tangible challenge for many organizations. Consequently, organizations must seamlessly integrate lifecycle costing into the comprehensive consideration of project tasks and associated costs.
