- Collect and analyze data for LCA modeling.
- Interpret LCA results to identify environmental hotspots and opportunities for improvement.
Data Management and Analysis:
- Maintain and manage databases for LCA data.
- Ensure data accuracy and integrity in all assessments.
Reporting and Documentation:
- Prepare detailed reports and presentations of LCA findings.
- Communicate results to internal and external stakeholders.
- Document methodologies, assumptions, and data sources used in assessments.
Collaboration and Support:
- Work with product development, manufacturing, and supply chain teams to integrate LCA insights into product design and operations.
- Support sustainability initiatives and corporate social responsibility (CSR) projects.
Regulatory Compliance and Standards:
- Ensure LCA practices comply with relevant standards.
