Abstract
The need for improvement of LCA performance is discussed with a starting point in the demands for comprehensiveness, reliability, simplicity, and integration into day-to-day management. It is argued that simplicity can be achieved without compromising comprehensiveness and reliability. The necessary improvements are discussed in a number of development areas: standard procedures, data verification, assessment techniques, understanding of uncertainties, software.
