This research article aims to 1. To analyze the low-carbon, eco-friendly Green Office management processes of the College of Management, the University of Phayao, during the period 2019–2024. 2. To analyze and synthesize lessons learned and a body of knowledge regarding the low-carbon, eco-friendly Green Office management of the Management College, Phayao University. 3. To propose guidelines for applying these lessons and newly acquired knowledge to enhance the development of low-carbon, eco-friendly Green Office management for partner organizations and other institutions. This study conducted qualitative interviews with nine university key stakeholders (n=9) using purposive sampling. The semi-structured interview questions were used, and content analysis was employed to develop the framework.


          The research results found that the green office management system model comprises three key factors: (1) human resources, (2) operational and working processes, and (3) operational system and working systems. To follow this framework, the outcome of low carbon emissions could be achieved. The recommendation for further study is to conduct a questionnaire survey and expand it to other universities using this green office management system.
