The Problem
Most infrastructure teams still make planning decisions based on first costs alone. As a result, they miss out on funding, overlook long-term operational savings, and fail to fully account for social and environmental benefits.

We deliver robust, data-driven economic evaluations that go beyond checkboxes—quantifying lifecycle costs, co-benefits, and long-term value in ways that align with sustainability, resilience, and funding goals.

Why Economic Evaluation for Envision LD3.3 Matters:
Build Infrastructure That Lasts—And Proves Its Worth
Envision’s LD3.3 credit encourages design teams and infrastructure owners to move beyond first-cost thinking and demonstrate the full economic implications with the broader social and environmental benefits of a project through economic analysis.
Autocase supports this by helping teams:
- Justify the business case of your project by quantifying life-cycle costs as well as social, environmental, and financial benefits of project alternatives
- Measure and integrate co-benefits (e.g., emissions reduction, public health, and equity) typically assessed only qualitatively
- Apply cost-effectiveness metrics like Net Present Value (NPV), Payback Period, and Benefit-Cost Ratio (BCR)
- Strengthen funding applications with evidence-based justification
- Enhance decision making by encouraging the effective management of resources and assets
