Evaluation implement of environmental load and evaluation program of environmental load

An evaluation apparatus of environmental load, comprising BOM (bill of materials) storage means for storing information on a parts structure of a product design plan or materials of parts which make up the parts structure and processes of the parts which make up the parts structure;

• evaluation means for calculating an environmental load evaluation value for the product design plan using the information on the parts structure of the product design plan or the materials of the parts which make up the parts structure and the processes of the parts which make up the parts structure stored by said BOM storage means;
• parts/material/process comparison means for calculating a difference in the parts structure, material, or process between a plurality of product design plans stored in said BOM storage means;
• and
• display means for displaying a parts tree of the parts structures for a user thereby to acquire selection of a part of the parts tree to be displayed and selection of vertical and horizontal axes as layouts of the part of the parts tree and displaying the difference between the environmental value evaluation values for the part of the parts tree calculated by said evaluation result comparison means, wherein said display means displays the difference in the parts structure, material, or process between the plurality of product design plans for products calculated by said parts/material/process comparison means.

A storage medium storing therein an evaluation program of environmental load causing a computer, when loaded therein with the program, to function as BOM (bill of materials) storage means for storing information on parts structures, materials, and processes of a plurality of product design plans;

• evaluation means for calculating environmental load evaluation values for the product design plans using the parts structures, materials, and processes of the plurality of product design plans stored in said BOM storage means;
• evaluation result comparison means for calculating a difference between the environmental load evaluation values for the plurality of product design plans using the parts structures, materials, and processes of the product design plans stored in said BOM storage means;
• parts/material/process comparison means for calculating a difference in the parts structure, material, or process between a plurality of product design plans stored in said BOM storage means;
• and display means for displaying a parts tree of the parts structures for a user thereby to acquire selection of a part of the parts tree to be displayed and selection of vertical and horizontal axes as layouts of the part of the parts tree and displaying the difference between the environmental value evaluation values for the part of the parts tree calculated by said design plan information comparing means, wherein said evaluation result display means displays the difference in the parts structure, material, or process between the plurality of product design plans for products calculated by said design plan information comparing means according to the selection of the vertical and horizontal axes as layouts.
