    Course information

    ICMS offers a high-level framework against which life cycle costs and carbon emissions can be classified, defined, measured, recorded, analysed, presented and compared.

    ICMS 3 training module which provides a common breakdown reporting structure for life cycle costs and carbon emissions. Its principal purpose is to allow:

    • Construction life cycle costs and carbon emissions to be consistently and transparently benchmarked internationally, nationally or regionally (comparative benchmarking) across buildings and infrastructure
    • Properly informed investment decisions on the design and location of construction projects to be made at the best value for money (investment decision-making)
    • Data to be used with confidence for construction project financing and investment, decision-making, and related purposes

    Furthermore, with the addition of Carbon Emissions included into ICMS 3. This course will enable you to: understand the relevance of climate change and carbon emissions to construction projects. Whilst providing examples of when carbon emissions arise across the construction project life cycle.

    • Recognise how to report carbon emissions alongside costs using the ACROME framework set out in ICMS3
    • Working as part of a multi-disciplinary team, to start to apply ICMS3 carbon reporting on specific buildings and infrastructure construction projects.
