Recently, the Sustainability Index such as DJSI(Dow Jones Sustainability Index) become more global trend for many electronic companies. In this study, we developed simplified environment assessment tool called by simplified LCA (SLCA) on electronic products and LCI Database in life cycle. Firstly, the environmental assessment categories were found for DJSI requirements such as global warming, mineral depletion, eco toxic, human toxic etc. Also, material database and parts database of life cycle inventory were developed for life cycle assessment. The stage of manufacturing, transportation, usage and disposal were developed for life cycle database. Finally, the SLCA tool was developed logically for environmental assessment based on excel program, in which the informations input on material selection, part weight and usage scenario, etc. The result of environmental assessment at the life cycle could be founded in using this tool. The meaning of this study have better effects of reducing load of evaluation and working time.
