APPA has released a new standard for detailing the total cost of ownership (TCO) principles in built environments.

The standard, APPA 1000-1, defines the elements required to implement TCO principles in a facility. APPA 1000-1 was developed to help building owners and facility managers understand the entire cost of purchasing, owning, and maintaining a building throughout its lifecycle.

The complete standard can be accessed through APPA’s website.
