New to the Deighton University
We are proud to launch two new mini-courses available at Deighton University this week!
The mini-courses Introduction to dTIMS LCCA and Components of an LCCA focus on the concepts and components of dTIMS Life Cycle Cost Analysis (LCCA) in dTIMS BA.
Learn more about each mini-course below, and continue your dTIMS Learning today!
Introduction to dTIMS LCCA
In this mini-course, we will explore the concept of an analysis in dTIMS - that is, a Life Cycle Cost Analysis or "LCCA". Life Cycle Cost Analysis is widely used to compare different strategies for building, maintaining, or improving an infrastructure asset by estimating the future costs resulting from alternative policies.
Upon completion of this mini-course, you will learn:
The value of dTIMS in your Life Cycle Cost Analysis
Analysis Segmentation for your assets using a Master Table and dTIMS tools
The core modeling of curves used in a dTIMS Analysis
Why Treatments are applied and how they impact your Analysis
How to generate Strategies through an Analysis Set
How to improve your Analysis optimization through Budget Strategies
How to review the dTIMS optimized strategies and adjust your Analysis
Components of an LCCA
In this mini-course, we will explore the components of a Life Cycle Cost Analysis in dTIMS. Building upon the information from the ‘Introduction to dTIMS LCCA’ mini-course, we will look at specific examples of all the components required to perform a basic LCCA in order to gain a better understanding of what they are, how they are created, and how they all work together in the analysis process.
Upon completion of this mini-course you will learn about the the various components of a Life Cycle Cost Analysis. Additionally, you will learn:
What the required components to set up a of a master analysis table are.
How to incorporate analysis variables into your analysis model.
How to use budgets and apply treatments to improve your analysis.
How to calculate an Agency or an Organization's Costs.
What the User Benefits are and how they factor into your LCCA.
How to bring in all the components to create an Analysis Set with budget restraints.
How to examine the results for adjustment and viewing reporting data using condition categories.
Did you know by successfully completing each mini-course in this stream you can become certified as dTIMS BA - Analyst? Check out our website to explore the other courses that make up the dTIMS BA Analyst Stream.
Coming Next Month!
Next month we will release the Optimization dTIMS Mini-Course, the final course in the Analyst Stream.
