Integrating Sustainability in Interior Retrofitting for Private Day School in Perspective with Project Management: A framework for Pune

Abstract: This research investigates project management guidelines for implementing sustainable interior finishes in private day school buildings in Pune. In light of growing environmental concerns and the need for energy-efficient educational infrastructures, the study integrates project management strategies with sustainable design practices. It evaluates eco-friendly materials, waste reduction methods, and cost-effective lifecycle study to balance performance, durability, and environmental impact. The framework developed emphasizes adherence to Sustainability and local regulatory standards, ensuring that project outcomes not only meet aesthetic and functional requirements but also promote long-term environmental benefits. The proposed guidelines serve as a decision-making tool for architects, project managers, and school administrators, facilitating the planning and execution of interior finishing projects that are both sustainable and economically viable.
