Your technical partner for systems and AI workflows.

I am the technical partner for Nashville-area agencies and small businesses. I connect your systems and build AI workflows for a fixed price.

Fixed price: $2,500 to $5,000 for most projects. About 2 to 3 weeks.

Discuss a project

Who this is for

Agencies. Web, brand, marketing and IT firms that need a technical partner for client work.
Small businesses. Teams near Nashville with systems that do not connect, manual work on documents and data, and nobody on staff to build the fix.

Three example projects

These show the kind of work I take on. They are examples, not client case studies.

System integration

Two systems do not talk to each other, so someone copies data by hand.

I connect them. For example: a web form to a CRM, a CRM to accounting, or a schedule to invoices. Each record moves one time, and you can see when a transfer fails.

Document workflow

Documents arrive by email or upload, and a person reads, types and files each one.

I build the intake. The workflow reads each document, pulls out the fields you need, sends it to the right person and files it. A person checks the items the workflow is not sure about.

Internal AI assistant

Answers live in policies, proposals and old project files that nobody has time to search.

I build an assistant that answers staff questions from your own documents and shows the source of each answer. It runs in accounts you control.

One fixed price

Most projects cost $2,500 to $5,000 and take about 2 to 3 weeks. You get one written scope and one price before work starts. The price covers the build, the deployment and the handoff. I do not bill by the hour.

How the work goes

1. You send a note
Tell me what you want to fix or build. I reply by email with questions about your goal, the systems involved and timing. A call is not necessary, but I am glad to have one.
2. We agree the scope in writing
You get one written scope with one fixed price and a delivery date. Work starts only after you agree to it.
3. I build and you see progress
I do the work myself. You see the work and its test results as it moves, not only at the end.
4. Handoff
The result runs in your accounts. You keep the access, the code and the written instructions.

Questions

What does a project cost?: Most projects cost $2,500 to $5,000. The price is fixed and agreed in writing before work starts. If a job does not fit that range, I tell you before you commit to anything.
How long does a project take?: About 2 to 3 weeks for most projects. The written scope gives the delivery date.
Who does the work?: I do. Patrick Hughes, owner of BMD PAT LLC, a veteran-owned small business. I do not pass your project to another company.
I run an agency. Can you work behind our brand?: Yes. I can work as your technical partner on client projects. Your client relationship stays with you.
Where are you?: Ashland City, Tennessee, near Nashville. I can meet in the Nashville area, and I also work remotely.
Who owns the result?: You do. The work runs in accounts you control, and you get the access and the written instructions at handoff.
