As we continue our Meet the People at Baumann series, which gives a spotlight on the diverse team of Baumann Consulting, we want to highlight the members of our Building Performance Analytics (BPA) team. We express our gratitude for their invaluable support in our mission to deliver solutions for a carbon-neutral real estate industry.
Ajit Naik, Vice President, is the Director of Baumann’s Building Performance Analytics Practice Area. Ajit started his journey at Baumann Consulting in 2018 as a Commissioning and Energy Engineer.
