Field-tested expertise. Secure. Confidential.
I'm Patrick Baudin, a Technical Documentation Specialist. I help firms reduce their workload by taking the heavy lifting of documentation off your plate. With 10 years of full-time experience (career spanning 20+ years) across architecture, contracting, and operations, I handle the time-intensive work of RFI responses, submittal reviews, specification writing, and CD Coordination Reviews. From complex multi-family units to commercial interiors, I know exactly what questions get asked on site, where coordination gaps hide, and how to answer them clearly to keep your project moving.
Veteran-Owned Small BusinessMy career spans 20+ years in the building industry—including 10 years of full-time professional experience. I've been employed under architects, contractors, and owners, giving me a broad perspective on diverse market demands from coast to coast. I also bring building operations perspective—having worked as a BOMA analyst and maintenance technician—so I understand what lasts after the job site clears.
I use this full-lifecycle experience to catch conflicts early, clarify ambiguity, and protect everyone from costly change orders. I hold a Master's in Architecture from Harvard Graduate School of Design and a Bachelor of Arts in Architectural Studies from the University of Illinois at Chicago. I am also a LEED AP accredited professional. Your project data and communications are handled with strict security and confidentiality.
