Assess environmental impact and circularity as designs evolve
BCI helps AEC teams understand how buildings perform in terms of environmental impact and circularity from the earliest design stages.
The platform combines building level environmental assessment, circularity analysis, and scenario comparison in one workflow. Using project data, international EPD databases, and verified calculation methods, BCI translates complex datasets into practical design insights.
Instead of working across separate tools and fragmented analyses, teams can compare scenarios, track design changes, and support decisions with structured and transparent project data.
Designed to fit into existing workflows
Import project data manually or through IFC and CSV integrations. BCI connects this information with international environmental and circularity data sources to continuously assess building level performance as designs evolve.
AEC teams can compare scenarios, evaluate material choices, and generate insights for design reviews, reporting, and decision making.
How it works
- Import and structure project data
- Connect environmental and circularity data
- Assess building level performance
- Identify optimisation opportunities
- Compare design scenarios
- Generate insights and reporting
Beyond traditional
LCA tools
Most LCA tools are primarily used for environmental reporting. BCI goes further. By combining environmental impact and circularity within a single building assessment platform, BCI allows AEC teams to evaluate embodied carbon and circularity assessment together, rather than in separate analyses.
By linking verified EPD data with circularity indicators such as reuse potential, disassembly, and material origin, BCI helps teams compare scenarios and support better design decisions across the project lifecycle.
Built for real projects
BCI is developed from real design and tender processes, where decisions need to be made under time pressure and uncertainty.
It fits within existing workflows and supports collaboration between stakeholders, ensuring insights can be used in practice.
Flexible in use
You can start with a single project and scale to multiple teams and projects.
BCI can be used independently within your team or combined with expert support when needed. Most teams perform their first analyses within weeks.
Built on real market experience
BCI is one of the most established building assessment platforms in the Dutch construction sector, used by consultants, developers, and design teams across thousands of real projects.
More than 200 active licenses, 4,000 registered buildings, and over 15,000 analysed design scenarios support the continuous development of the platform and its methodologies.
BCI is developed in close collaboration with sustainability and circularity consultants who actively use the software in practice. This ensures that workflows, calculations, and data structures reflect real project requirements, regulatory frameworks, and decision making processes.
