Fixed scope · fixed price 01 ### Discovery Call We map the actual problem, the constraints, and the field conditions the software has to survive. 02 ### Proposal & SOW Fixed scope, fixed price, a firm timeline. No open-ended hourly meters. 03 ### Build & Demo We build in the open with working demos — you see it run before launch, not after. 04 ### Launch & Handoff Ship to production with full IP transfer. You own the code, the accounts, and the keys. How we run production — the same discipline on every build Release gates Every deploy runs an automated verify + assert gate in-build; a failed check publishes nothing, and the last good version keeps serving. Hash-pinned CSP Strict Content-Security-Policy with pinned script hashes — the browser refuses to run anything we didn't ship. Core Web Vitals Field vitals that pass, self-hosted type, zero third-party bloat. This page is built to score 100 on performance. §04 ## What we do. End-to-end engineering Chicago-based?

Monitoring & Alerting Uptime and error monitoring with alerting wired to the people who can act. Testing & QA Automated verification and release assertions on every build. §06 ## The team behind the work. Kiran R. Katwa Founder **[Kiran R. Katwa](https://10ustech.com/about/kiran-katwa) — Founder & President.** A Chicago engineer with over a decade of experience building production software, who leads the design, build, and operation of every system the firm ships. 10 US Tech is deliberately small by design: the senior people who scope your project are the people who ship it — no handoffs, no junior team learning on your budget, no gap between the pitch and the work. The firm runs its own products in production — publicly verifiable, so you can inspect the work before you hire it. Document processing, real-time dashboards, integrations that hold up under load: what you see on the live builds is exactly the discipline you get on yours. Software that's built to run — not just to demo. ★★★★★ // GOOGLE REVIEW "I'm having an outstanding experience working with 10 US Tech for the redesign of our website.
