You might look at RS Means:
* Life Cycle Costing for Facilities
* Facilities Maintenance & Repair Cost Data
* Facilities Cost Data
I do not personally have any of these, but I think they may have the
information you may need.
They also offer data online if you do not want to buy the book, they have a
free trial period.

I was asked to complete a life cycle cost analysis comparing a
boiler/chiller
system vs a geothermal system with a water to water heat pump. I have all
the factors I need except the illusive O&M costs. (I have fuel cost,
installation cost, equipment cost....)
What I have done at this point is to contact the company which will actually
be doing the O&M. (I went straight to the horse's mouth) but the campus
only
has 1 building with a geo-thermal system and it is only 1 year old. I think
if I can get a ratio comparing the O&M costs of a boiler/chiller vs
geothermal, I'd be done.
Something as simple as "A geothermal system on average costs x% less in O&M
costs compared to a boiler/chiller system...." and somebody to site as to
the
value of 'x'.
