SimaPro is a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) software, built and distributed by PRé Consultants.

Imperial College London has both the Faculty and Analyst licenses of SimaPro and these are managed by Imperial’s Centre for Environmental Policy (CEP).

Both the Faculty and Analyst versions of the software are only available to research groups/departments who financially contribute towards the annual service contract for maintenance. The Faculty version is for use by Undergraduate and Master students in contributing groups and departments for teaching and research projects activities and can easily be accessed from the Software Hub. If your department is not currently contributing towards the service contract and you require access to SimaPro, please register your interest by emailing the Life Cycle Network.

The Analyst version is also restricted to groups and departments who contribute towards the service contract and is normally available to Imperial Staff and PhD students. Please contact the Life Cycle Network to gain access.

If you are interested in learning more about LCA, SimaPro or other tools that support life cycle thinking and approaches for your studies, research or teaching, please visit the Life Cycle Network webpage for further information.
