The ASAQS Guide to **Life Cycle Costing** shifts your focus from upfront expenses to the long-term sustainability of your projects.

Traditionally, we've emphasized initial costs, but the true weight lies in ongoing operational expenses. Let's rethink our approach and make informed decisions for lasting value.

This guide isn't just for us as Quantity Surveyors – it's a game-changer for public procurement and private sector property investments. Let's harness its wisdom to provide better services and build a more sustainable built environment.

$118 million Hosea Kutako Airport expansion planned

The Namibia Airports Company (NAC) says it plans to upgrade facilities at the Hosea Kutako International Airport (HKIA), with a new terminal in the works, and the envisaged extension of the apron.

The set motion follows a recent Annual General Meeting held where it was resolved to also extend the airport’s Very Important Persons (VIP)/Very Very Important Persons (VVIP) facilities at the airport to bring it up to standard, the NAC said.

The upgrades at the airport for the projects under consideration are expected to cost the NAC N$118 million, with N$100 million earmarked for the expansion of the apron, and construction of a newly planned terminal.
