Leap - for Large Infrastructure Projects

Leap is designed as a scenario based decision support tool for use during the planning, construction, operation and decommissioning of infrastructure projects.

Leap enables the assessment of economic and environmental impacts over the complete project life cycle: construction, operation and decommissioning. Leap is a powerful tool for any infrastructure project, large or small, whether geographically spread or local.

One of Leap's unique strengths is its ability to supply management and decision making information about local, often qualitative, impacts such as noise and visual impact, as well as related economic impacts.

The open architecture of Leap enables the user to define systems and impacts very broadly, using whatever data is considered significant. Since Leap considers both economic and environmental impacts, it can optimise cost effectiveness with account of potential environmental and social impacts and regulatory compliance. Leap also allows a broad risk assessment of investment and maintenance projects, coupled with flexible ongoing management support as projects mature, legislation changes, and for long term infrastructure projects.

• Users may define their own systems, environments, economic models and impacts, thus tailoring Leap to individual evaluation and operational scenarios. Can be adapted with ease to work with, and reinforce, existing accounting and risk management systems.
• The system and environment components can be stored and reused in future work, building a unique knowledge base (whether in-house or shared across project teams), and optimizing user efficiency
• User defined reporting – technical and/or management outputs, what-if functionality, and comparative evaluation of individual elements or overall scenarios. Initial capital cost reporting, as well as Life Cycle Costing scenarios, including time dependency.
