📚 Documentation & Decision Frameworks
What is it?
When architecture and processes are clearly documented, the team starts thinking in a unified model. This service is about structure, repeatability, and preserving collective memory.
I help you organize documentation:
- formalize decisions,
- record architecture,
- build a knowledge system, so everyone knows why something was done this way and how it works.
When do you need it?
- The team is growing, and "it's all in my head" no longer works
- Key employees leave, and knowledge leaves with them
- Architectural decisions are lost or repeated
- It's hard to explain the system to new people
- The company has several products, and each does things differently
- Documentation is either outdated or never read
What I do
- Help organize architecture and decisions: we record why things are done a certain way
- Structure all important information about the product and system — from business goals to technical constraints
- Create living and understandable documentation that people actually read
- Build a knowledge system: where to look, how to find, who is responsible
- Help develop a unified style of thinking and communication
- Teach the team: how to document and make decisions so you don't have to redo everything
What's inside (for techies)
- I use practices like:
- ADR — Architecture Decision Records
- TDR — Team Decision Records
- C4 model — Contexts, containers, components, code
- I document in tools familiar to the team:
- PlantUML, Markdown, Confluence, Notion, DocHub
- Help develop a unified style of thinking and documentation
What you get
- Architectural documentation understandable to developers, managers, and analysts
- A history of decisions with context
- Standards and templates: new team members onboard faster
- Increased process maturity and reduced dependency on individuals
Work format
- Audit of current documentation and workflows
- Team sessions, templates, implementation in real tasks
- Online or offline
- Flexible adaptation to your team's tools and culture
For whom
- Product teams that want to reduce onboarding losses
- Architects who want to structure knowledge
- Leaders tired of chaos and seeking stability
Result
✅ You will have:
- A unified knowledge base
- Clear architecture and decisions
- Updatable and usable documentation
- Confidence that the team is moving in the same direction
You are no longer dependent on "that one person who knows everything."
