SWOT analysis of concepts, methods and models potentially supporting LCA

This deliverable is a compilation of the analysis of strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and strengths (SWOT) of different concepts, methods and models which could be relevant for a scientific framework for broadening and deepening LCA. This paper is meant to give an overview and description of the analysis executed in the framework of Workpackage 3 based on Deliverable 4 (The position paper on models and tools which may be related to LCA or might expand LCA) and relating to Deliverable 7 (A critical review of the current research needs and limitations related to ISO-LCA practices). It does not yet contain interpretations and conclusions - these will be presented in the final Deliverable 17 of Workpackage 3 (Options for broadening and deepening LCA). Deliverables 4 and 10 of Workpackage 3 will be merged and form the conceptual and empirical basis of Deliverable 17. Therefore, the overlaps between Deliverables 4 and 10 have been created intentionally. The description of consistent methodological elements which did not change during the execution of Workpackage 3, but which are needed for the understanding of both deliverables, is repeated with a few minor changes and, where appropriate, illustrations.
