Abstract
This paper focuses on the evaluation of the environmental impacts of a PSS based on the Life Cycle Assessment methodology. Since current LCA tools are mainly product-oriented, solutions that allow an easy integration of the service component are needed. A reference architecture guiding the execution of the LCI phase is proposed both considering how service and product information jointly contribute to data gathering in the lifecycle phases and providing a more detailed checklist of information categories. The proposed architecture in this version has been thought to be as general as possible in order to be applied to any type of PSS.
