Q&A

Can you provide individual support for training human resources related to LCA within the company?
We provide support to our members through AIST’s technical consulting system for a fee, so please let us know.
Is it possible to use the database and calculation tools on a trial basis?
IDEA Version 3 does not provide any tools for trial use. The database can only be used by member companies that have signed a contract under the license agreement. We hope that you will sign up and use it.
How much does it cost per year?
250,000 yen per year (including tax) for general members, 100,000 yen per year (including tax) for association members and SME members, 50,000 yen per year (including tax) for academy members (universities, public research institutions, etc.), and no charge for special members (government agencies, etc.).
For using IDEA Version 3, 50,000 yen per year (including tax) will be charged in addition to the above amount.

These are just a few of the questions we often receive.
