Hedgehog Company has performed a life cycle assessment (LCA) which will be used for business-to-business communication. The target group of this study are governments and businesses related to public procurement in the Dutch construction sector, as well as customers with whom ArcelorMittal wishes to share the environmental data.
Sustainability in tenders
This LCA study aims to generate reliable and accurate quantitative environmental data. With the LCA, the Environmental Cost Indicator (in Dutch MKI) was calculated. The MKI is a single score indicator representing the shadow price of a product expressed in euro. This is primarily used in tender within the Dutch construction sector. With an MKI score of their rails, ArcelorMittal gets an understanding of the environmental impact of their product.
