• Designed energy-efficient HVAC systems and provided technical advisory for the Pathways Affordable Housing project, helping the client qualify for BC Affordable Housing Incentives and meet stringent municipal sustainability and social impact criteria.

Led MEP design, sustainability integration, and project delivery for Harbor Heights, a 1.6M sq. ft. mixed-use development in Mumbai featuring four 52+ story residential towers, a 45,000 sq. m retail mall, and a community center:

• Directed a cross-functional MEP team, establishing bi-weekly work schedules and resource plans that ensured 100% on-time delivery and preserved target profit margins across the project lifecycle.
• Conducted sustainability-focused client workshops, incorporating municipality-approved energy-efficient HVAC solutions and VRV systems (85 TR), ensuring full regulatory compliance and local green building alignment.
• Optimized central chiller plant design, reducing capacity from 800 TR to 650 TR for the retail mall, achieving a ~19% reduction in cooling load and substantial long-term energy cost savings.
• Designed NFPA-compliant fire protection and ASPE/NBC-aligned plumbing systems, securing CFO No Objection Certificate (NOC) and clearances from both municipal and environmental authorities.
• Performed ASHRAE-based HVAC load analysis and electrical coordination, enabling precise equipment sizing and eliminating overdesign inefficiencies, enhancing building system performance.

Managed mechanical system design and stakeholder coordination across three high-performance industrial, academic, and cleanroom facilities, totaling over 418,000 sq.ft. of conditioned space, delivering efficient and sustainable HVAC solutions:

• Led HVAC design and humidity control strategy for the Vikram Solar Panel Factory (125,000 sq. ft.), implementing a precise 240 TR system within an 800 TR cooling infrastructure, ensuring optimal thermal and moisture conditions for photovoltaic manufacturing.
• Delivered the Company’s first cleanroom design for the MTR R&D Laboratory (3,200 sq. ft.), integrating a 120 TR VRV air-conditioning system that met ISO cleanroom standards, enabling high-precision research operations in a tightly controlled environment.
• Engineered a 600,000 CFM evaporative cooling system for the Bajaj Institute of Technology (290,000 sq. ft.), achieving significant energy savings and improved thermal comfort for educational spaces, aligning with low-energy design principles.
• Coordinated end-to-end project execution by aligning deliverables with architects, electrical consultants, and facility teams, maintaining 100% adherence to project schedules and design milestones.
• Developed and maintained a technical database of cleanroom standards, evaporative cooling methodologies, and control systems—standardizing future project delivery and reducing design time by an estimated 15–20%.

Supported HVAC design, cost estimation, and procurement optimization for multiple small-scale industrial projects, contributing to efficient project execution and sustainable system selection:

• Designed HVAC systems for over 10 industrial facilities, incorporating energy-efficient layouts that reduced projected energy consumption.
• Prepared detailed Bills of Quantities (BOQs) and conducted cost estimations for MEP works, enhancing cost transparency and enabling accurate budgeting with less than 5% deviation from actual procurement costs.
• Developed techno-commercial comparison reports for HVAC equipment procurement, improving supplier negotiations and achieving average cost savings.
• Streamlined procurement workflows by coordinating with design, procurement, and vendor teams, reducing equipment lead times.
